and about as smart as saying “i won powerball today, but i’m
not going to cash in the ticket because that way the prize will
increase next week, and hopefully i’ll win again.”

to think he’s not going to nominate someone before the election ( if they have the votes in the senate) is to know nothing about him.

Oh he’ll nominate someone, I just don’t think they’ll put it up to a vote before the election. Worst case for Trump is he gets crushed and rams it through lame duck. Then Biden takes the oath and the prosecutions begin.

on what basis is waiting the right thing? obama didn’t wait, he nominated garland and sent the nomination to the senate. note that the senate republicans didn’t fabricate rape charges against him, or attack him for drinking beer in high school.

i’m not a huge fan of McConnell, but this is where he shines. he’s a shrewd legislative mechanic. he can most likely get 50 votes, in which case get ready for a very different SCOTUS. one that makes decisions based on what the constitution actually says, not based on what they wish it said. that’s a good thing.
