The GOP pulled their stunt with McConnell and Lindsey Graham vowing to not let a SC Justice through in an election year, and they turned right around and did it anyway.

Ram through the voting rights act and expand the court to keep the GOP honest and uphold them to their word
So change the rules to benefit your party, got it. I can't see that ending badly at all. Regardless of what you think about McConnell's move with Garland (and I can say my opinion is we dodged a major bullet on that one), it was completely within the rules. Underhanded and hypocritical to be sure, but still no rules were broken or changed to facilitate it.
