I found this during a search:

“The Thurmond rule, in US politics, posits that at some point in a presidential election year, the US Senate will not confirm the president’s nominees to the federal judiciary except under certain circumstances.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thurmond_rule

That’s really not a rule, but a usually followed Senate practice. Senators “Turtle” McConnell and Graham need to get a move on with respect to judges.

Graham is too busy taking calls from scamsters.
