Trump says he will announce is non-surprising pick, Amy Coney Barrett as the next Supreme Court Justice nominee but Mitch McConnell WON'T promise him that they will vote BEFORE election day for fear of his colleagues LOSING their seat if they voted YES!!

The Supreme Court pick will become a political hot bed in the election race as now McConnell is not promising a vote before the election and said he will wait for the person to come out of the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings and then set a date

Trump wants a rushed vote so that his nominee gets in before November 3rd but McConnell is worried that his senators in tight re-election contests will pay the price if they rush someone in before polls close

Well, Republicans are evil but they're certainly not stupid.
I fucking called it. They have no reason to piss off people before the election, when they can ignore the will of the people and sneak it in afterwards anyway:

Honestly, the GOP would be wise to just wait till after the election.
Even if they lose bigly, they have no shame and if they appointed a new justice in spite of the will of the people, nothing could stop them. While as doing it right away will enrage the hell out of people for ultimately the same result as the former.
The only reason to do it right away is sheer hubris, thinking they can literally get away with anything. Which...they basically can, but you'd think they wouldn't want to let the country see that right before the election...
