2. Time for one. They're in session only 13 more days before they recess until after the election.

It will likely require an extension into the recess, which puts incumbents up for reelection at a disadvantage as they now are not able to head home to campaign for their own reelection. Lots of Republicans are in a tough fight.

Trump might also want it to be an election day issue - vote for me so we can appoint that seat! Fire up those voters who weren't quite sure they wanted to vote for him but were due to the RBG seat. Now that's filled, they may not turn out.

But I think you're right that option two will be their choice.

And I'm okay with that.
