That would be a natural instinct, however a moderate conservative, not a far right conservative, should be appointed by Trump, either before, during, or after the election, because the Court already is leaning Right, and making it even more right-wing would reflect badly on Trump and Republicans, because it would be detrimental to the nation's justice system.
How does anyone "Hurry up" with a procedure that has no time limit. Ginsburg went from being nominated to being confirmed in 50 days. Republicans have until January to replace Ginsburg so Democrat hopes to win some senate seat and thwart this appointment are not going to succeed.
Of course. If they wait for Biden to win then they cant get another conservative into the Supreme Court. Its all about political expedience and to hell with any previous standards that they have insisted on in the past (like "lets wait until after the election when Obama was in office in 2016)
Cover all of your bases. He should do it in response to the constant and phony attacks against him. Including the attempted coup and the phony Impeachment where they counldnt even come up with a charge for the freaking Trial.
