I say go for it.
O! There's no question Trump is going to make an appointment and make it promptly! What I see on-line says he'll announce his appointment by Friday or Saturday. THAT is gonna happen! If anyone thinks he isn't going to do that, they are crazy. I add that this does NOT run contrary to what is always done. The only question is how does the Senate handle it, given the election is near.
