GOP now arguing Senate must replace Ginsburg now because if the election is litigated, just 8 justices risks a deadlock, and constitutional crisis.

Rubbish. Giving a last-minute Trump appointee power to decide whether Trump is the next president would be a constitutional crisis.

3. Oh if it's just the Constitution that Republicans are worried about...

why not simple propose in advance that whoever the next president elect wants as the nominee to fill this SC vacancy will be the person who gets a confirmation hearing? I'm sure Democrats would agree to that. Problem solved.
