A floor vote could be held in very short order, and should be as to hold the seat open is to give the left a reason to vote.
    Yet the McConnel rule is more contemporary.

    Why the distinction between lame duck and not? If Trump gets re-elected he can have his choice. At least that used to be McConnels position.

    Considering the election coming up and considering the Biden/Harris campaign has already lawyered up a full SCOTUS should be on hand.

    The left live a lie. Liberalism is a result of moral immaturity.

    Trump has surged in the polls because of the rioting and now the democrats are calling for more of what is helping Trump. These people are not well. This is a no win situation for the left so why not just napalm the entire village.
