At some point -- if Mitch the turtle refuses to push the nuclear button -- Trump is going to have to go face-to-face with McConnell and the rest of the Republican Senate and read 'em the riot act.
Actually, Trump should make it clear to Schumer and the democrats -- stop the obstruction, or he'll do a recess appointment.
And then... do it.
And do the same for the next vacancy, etc.
I'm sure there are PLENTY of very conservative judges out there, who wouldn't mind serving a 1-to-2-year hitch as a United States Supreme Court Justice...
Addendum:
The more I think about "short-term Supreme Court Justices", the more I like the idea.
I don't believe that Court seats should be lifetime appointments.
It might do us well to "cycle through" some new blood. Give up-and-coming jurists a shot at the big time.
Some may flop. But I think most will rise to the occasion.
And even if they serve only two years at first, a good record on the Court will garner them a chance for a permanent appointment.
