Senate Judiciary members Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn, Thom Tillis, and Joni Ernst face re-election in 45 days. You think they want to tell their base to wait for a new justice? “Strategic thinking” like this is why Josh Hawley is on Judiciary and Claire McCaskill is on MSNBC.

Lindsey in trouble either way. So is Tillis. Joni and John will do whatever Mitch tells them to do.

11 person court. Period.

And add DC, maybe PR, as states to create a long-term Democratic advantage in the Senate.
