The Constitution requires that the President and the Senate agree on a nominee. They did not when Garland was nominated.
That will likely not be the case when Trump nominates an RGB replacement. That is, it is possible that the President and the Senate will agree on a nominee. But, it may not be the case. We shall see.
Let's not pretend that the Senate is there to rubber stamp whomever the president nominates...especially when Democrats vote partisan far more often than Republicans. Just look at the votes for recent nominees. Dem nominees have often been mostly unanimous, but GOP nominees are more often along party lines. You guys are far more partisan on this kind of thing than the GOP is.
