Mitch Mconnell put it in his Twitter post about her passing. It’s beyond, beyond disgusting.

That man is pure fucking evil. I can only hope that the Republicans who are likely to be voted out (Martha McSally R-AZ, Susan Collins R-ME, Cory Gardner R-CO...) will not vote for any of Trump's loons right before the election. Three Republican senators have already pledged that they wouldn't (Murkowski, Grassley, and Collins) vote for a new justice until the inauguration, but Collins have proven over and over agains that she cannot be trusted.

Agreed. And Gardner is already on very thin ice in Colorado, which went from red to purple to likely bright blue this go around. Romney might not support Trump on this either. Right before the election is actually terrible for the four shaky senators trying to keep their seats as moderate republicans in increasingly liberal states. Now, after the election, who knows. But even Lindsay graham issued a statement that he didn’t think it was a great idea. The stunt they pulled in 2016 with Merrick Garland will haunt their post 2020 aspirations and many apart from McConnell the Neck Turtle know it.

I think Mitt Romney knows what's good for him. I don't think he gets to do that twice and have anything left of a professional legacy as a businessman nor as a politician.
