Okay, I am too weak and beaten down, I can't take it anymore. I give up. We cannot have a partisan divide in this country. It's just not right, pitting brother against brother, sister against sister. I guess the only rational thing to do, the only nice thing to do, is to vote Harris-Biden and pray to God that there's no problems with this election. I am going to take action now to make sure Trump doesn't install another illegitimate justice. I know it would be illegitimate because I heard it on Al Sharpton's program on MSNBC. The former Attorney General of the United States of America said so. (emphasis on "United"). We need to be United. As that famous and wise prophet for Los Angeles once said, "Can't we just all get along?"
No, eff'n way. We do not give one inch on this. We need to throw every Rat out of office, ridicule and ostracize ever Democrat and RINO. We need another four more years of Trump, hold the Senate, gain the house, add three new conservative, right-wing, completely extremist Supreme Court Justices, and watch the leftist heads explode. I could give a rats ass about partisanship and being divided. I am sick of this uni-party, deep state bull schiff that has destroyed out country. If the left wants partisanship, they are more than welcome to change every fiber of their being and become conservative. Short of that, they can rot in hell.
You have absolutely no way of knowing how these Rinos in the senate will vote. The question is, in a 4-4 vote whether Pennsylvania harvested ballots with no signature will swing PA and the country to Biden, what happens?
Even if Cocaine Mitch can ramrod through a Trump nominee, the Left will scream for the new Justice to recuse themself from any election-related decisions.

Sorry for the double-tap.
“Yep, plus the next court appointment after Ginsburg could very well be someone for Clearance Thomas’s seat, if he retires some day”
Not necessarily.. the oldest one on the bench now is liberal Stephen Breyer, now at age 82.
They will vote the same way they voted for Gorsuch and Kavanaugh who were both confirmed.
And the final vote will take place after the elections. And even Susan Collins (who's election will have been settled), will vote for the Trump nominee.
There will be no 4-4. Period.
They can scream all they want it’s not going to happen.
The new justice WILL be part of the court in any ballot lawsuits.
Bayer doesn’t have much time left. He will be gone during Trump’s second term.
If Collins loses she will not support Trump’s nominee. If she wins and Trump loses she will not support his nominee.
McSally and Gardner will vote for the nominee as they need all the base support they can get. Murkowski is a no regardless and Collins May vote yes if forced before the election. Collins will vote No is she loses and vote is after election. Romney? Who the hell knows but probably a No. if Graham loses he will vote No after the election in true McCain style.
Breyer is now the oldest SCOTUS justice at 82 years of age.
He may be the next to go, and I hope it's this year.
But with her voting we all know that she would have voted incorrectly...in defiance of the Constitution.
We shall see.
“Nonsense. Would the Associalist Press say that if the show were on the other foot and it was the Democrats who were going to get the advantage after the new Justice was seated?”
Yes, and it would be unremarkable for them to say it as both sides know it is true.
The problem is Congress refuses to go into recess.
