“Dims will claim this is already too close to 2020 for Trump to nominate anyone.”

They’ll try to expand on the time period of “The Biden Rule”.

Tough titties. They only have 47 U.S. senators, and the filibuster for SCOTUS nominations was repealed when they stupidly tried to filibuster Gorsuch’s nomination. If Ginsburg dies or retires this year or next year, there is nothing that the Democrats can do to block Trump from nominating and Senate Republicans from confirming a conservative justice to replace her.
