9/27/20:
President Trump made the seemingly inevitable official on Saturday, nominating Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
And Sen. Joe Manchin, a West Virginia Democrat long courted by Republicans, condemned any censure of Barrett on the basis of her Catholic faith, in what amounted to some daylight on the prospect that he might eventually alter his vote. Democrats are expected to oppose Barrett’s nomination with potential unanimity, crying foul on Republican tactics in an election year, and are plainly fearful of the potential tidal wave of change a Barrett-for-Ginsburg swap would bring to the nation’s highest court.
