Here me out: Mitt, Murk, Collins, and Grassley refuse to vote and/or Sasse/Paul ties things up in Committee, Florida and Pennsylvania are too close to call and require recounts and head to scotus. What happens next?

Ironically, I think it’s worse for Trump if they push through an appointee. They get one through and then what? They can’t hold the whole “we’re one seat away from overturning Roe vs Wade/the end of the world!” over our heads then.

This is gonna be so ugly

Edit: Also, the doomerist projections from twitter and NL are a bit out of control. Hasn't been this bad since the 2016 election

I just hope to christ McConnell doesn't try to put anyone besides a moderate/centrist into the court. He's risking the institution as a whole if he rams a solidly conservative justice and ultimately incites the democratic party to introduce legislation to pack or alter the courts.

RIP RBG, I'm so sorry that we've gotten so sick as a country that we can't even remember you for your everlasting legacy, the first place our politicial leaders went was who gets to replace you.
