Not sure I get the game theory behind this. Is the assumption that the other side won't get the Pres & Senate someday? Or that long term is hard to predict so take gains now while you can? Or that the Senate favors red states at the margins?https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetillman/mcconnell-trump-nominees-faster-rule-change …

Bork had an up/down vote in the Senate and was rejected. McConnell’s Senate refused to hold hearings to even attempt to let Obama fill vacancies in certain federal judiciary seats for up to seven years. The malfeasant one is and always has been McConnell.

Obama left behind a huge # of judicial vacancies. Trump is working quickly to fill them - and now could do it even more quickly. Trump won't leave behind such a hole for a future D admin.
