Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said in an interview that aired Tuesday night that he would not take up another Supreme Court nomination should it come up in the 2020 election cycle.

“If I'm chairman, they won't take it up, no,” Grassley said when asked if the Senate Judiciary Committee would consider another Trump Supreme Court nomination in 2020. “Now if someone else is chairman of the [Judiciary] Committee, they’ll have to decide for themselves. But that's a decision I made a long time ago.”

It would be controversial but McConnell is in favor.  Maybe Ruth will be forced to resign in 2019 because of her obviously failing health.
