This quote from last year should remove any doubt as to what McConnell will do.

“Should a Supreme Court justice die next year, what will your position be on filling that spot?” an attendee asked.
“Oh, we’d fill it,” McConnell replied with a smile.

THIS.
It doesn’t matter how much you hate Trump, or find it incredibly unfair that Garland didn’t get a vote, but it would be seen as a massive negative by theiir base if Trump/McConnell did not move forward with a vote.
Politically they HAVE to push forward a vote. Anyone should be able to understand that, although everyone will not like it.

Man this is such a great example of how blindly biased this board is. You guys are all literally saying the same rules should not apply to Republicans as apply to Democrats. There's not many here who seem to have much level of self-awareness so I'm sure just the few Ds and people who lean slightly right are able to see it and call it what it is. And it's not at all surprising because this board has shown time and again an ability to perform Shannon Miller levels of mental gymnastics. Still, pretty impressive.
