I disagree
I would encourage the senate to use their duly elected majority; similar to what is going on in the house currently.......

This would be extremely problematic for Republicans.
It was the Republicans who refused to even bring Obama's SC Justice nomination to the floor because Obama was in his last year of office.
If they changed their mind just because they have the right President for them to install a favourable pick, it would not play well with moderates. It would be seen as the height of partisan politics - because, well, it would be.
No, if RBG does pass away, then the seat will be open until AFTER the 2020 election.

I showed a lady a partial list of Trump achievements. She exclaimed, "He's a TERRIBLE President!".
Your post reminded me of her.
What do you like about Kavanaugh, other than the fact that dear leader appointed him? The patriot act? "Constitutionalist" my a$$.

You forgot to mention that's because its good when your side does it, but bad when the other side does it.

If she does pass away, it will lead to even more desperation to get rid of the President.
I dont think the poor dems could handle another "loss" , which is how they see any appointment made by Trump.
If she passes away obviously the Senate should hold off on confirming any replacement until the American people have spoken on November 4th 2020.
Why would they do that?
The same reason McConnell refused to hold confirmation hearings on Merrick Garland:
Its imperative the American People have a say in this after 2 Trump nominations..........
Meh... with the way the dems are acting right now I am completely fine with not waiting. It's likely that is all this whole impeachment thing is about. They know RBG isn't going to last.

I like that he appears to be neutral. He has refused to just rubber stamp eveything Republicans want. He's ruled for and against the Govt. That is good, no?

I mean, these past few weeks have been some of the most entertaining and blissful I've had in the last few years. Watching all this come out around Trump and the dumpsterfire that is him and his administration being displayed publicly now for the remainder of his term actually calms me a great deal and really lowers my stress levels.
So in that sense yes you could say all this winning is getting to me (in a good way).
