Yep I wonder about that. The current Senate will be in office until Jan 3rd, and could hold hearings and confirm a replacement. Whether they will actually do that who can say.
Trump should seen Barretts name in now but I very much doubt. Will Cocaine Mitch fast track it? Would Lindsey fast track it?
It the most solid campaign issue, period. For both sides. Thanks Justice Roberts for making it more important than it needed to be.
