Wouldn't it make more sense for the Republicans...
...to take a risk and not fill Ginsburgs seat until after the election? KNowing there is a seat to immediately fill, requiring a Republican Senate to confirm a Republican appointee....wouldnt that really motivate their base to vote? If they Rush to confirm the appointee before (and they dont really have time) The election, the base will relax, not go and vote and Trump will lose and theyll all go to jail. Thoughts?
