I'd like to see the GOP drag out the nomination hearings until 2023 so when the Dems take their beating in November the incoming red wave will go 'Hell no!' and make it start all over. Not familiar enough with the process though to know if a simple majority can satisfy the nomination and whether the procedure can be filibustered. Lots of picky and peculiar rules in the Senate.
In any case, not a huge issue for the court, a new liberal justice still leaves the court conservative leaning although it's hard to count on Chief Justice Roberts.
And BTW, am I mistaken or wasn't Breyer's appointment an expansion of the court at the time? Probably before my time anyways.
