In theory, but incumbent senators don’t lose very often. If Ds get a hold of that seat, 1) Even if Trump wins less likely to get judges through 2) A better than 50/50 chance the incumbent wins again in 6 years and you have a fully D seat for 12+ years. Graham isn’t reliable but he’s been a lot better the last 2 years than others that hated Trump (MirCOW, Romney, etc) and he’s going to be a lot better than any Democrat.
All appellate court vacancies have been filled. So, that is the one issue that McConnell and the Senate have done an excellent job on.
