This may be a bad time to send it to SCOTUS. 4-4 ties may uphold the Federal Judge’s ruling?

Agree.

The lower court (bad) ruling would stand. Wait a couple of weeks for the confirmation to take place and swearing in.

This actually can be used by Trump. Shows the importance of the Supreme court to be in place to ‘back the will of the people.’

Ginsberg is on her last leg. That’ll be a big fight when Trump replaces her with one of the 19 left from his list.

Correct. a 4-4 tie upholds the lower court ruling.

It’s a damn shame when the law is decided by political ideology.
