Dems play a dangerous game:
1. President Trump nominates Judge Barrett (or some other worthy; there are a bunch).
2. Dems oppose; Murkowski and Collins go south; Dems stick together; McConnell can’t round up the votes, announces the nomination’s on hold until after the election.
3. Dem obstruction gooses Republican turnout.
4. Four (or 5, or 8. or 10) Dems in pro-Trump states go down to defeat.
5. McConnell waits to early January, Justice Barrett confirmed 56 - 44 by the Republican (58 seats) Senate.
I don’t understand how Murkowski wins in the GOP primary in Alaska. The first time was a write-in campaign using teachers’ unions. Don’t Alaskan GOP voters care how bad she is?
