14 presidents appointed 21 justices during presidential election years. 6 "lame duck" presidents appointed justices after their successors had been elected, but before they took office.
President Barack Obama said, “Your job doesn’t stop until you are voted out or until your term expires.” Which isn't 100% true. The sitting president's job stops when his/her succesor is sworn in.
So, Trump could nominate someone now and the Senate could take almost 4 months to decide whether or not to accept his nominee. Trump could wait until after the election and still nominate someone... even if he lost the election.
The critical issue is whether or not the Republicans can maintain control of the Senate. If so, they could decline Biden's nominees should he win, if deemed too leftist/radical.

Um, from the second paragraph:
"The Committee's Democrats want to question Whitaker about his oversight of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election..."

Well said, Baboon (above).
As the infamous George W. Bush once said: 'Fool me once - shame on you; fool me twice - shame on ME'. In the case of Thailand, we can say: 'Fool me a zillion times - shame on the Thai people for putting up with it all these years, again and again and again!'
George actually said:
There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.

He has good reason to be worried, based on the report from earlier this week:
CHIANG RAI — Police said Tuesday they will look into whether a 25-year-old coach of a youth football team could face legal action for leading them into a cave complex where they were stranded 10 days.
Col. Komsan Saard-an, chief of Mae Sai Police Station, declined to confirm or rule out charges of negligence against Ekapol “Aek” Chanthawong, who led the group of 12 boys on the excursion into the Tham Luang Nang Non complex.
They need to get all the facts, rather than slander someone who helped ensure the survival of the 12 kids.-

I live northeast of Chiang Rai in a small village. The head of our Muban had me and my girlfriend fill out a table with my name, age, address and phone number. He was told, presumably by Immigration, to get all farangs here (both of us) to complete the form, to help Immigration double-check what we put on our visa forms and to help Immigration track overstayers. No need to show my passport or have any photos taken.
First time ever in 10+ years. No big deal...

From the web:
One day a merchant came to the village to buy monkeys. He announced that he will buy the monkeys at $100 each. Villagers wondered why somebody would want to buy stray monkeys at $100 each? Still, a few people caught some monkeys and sold them to the merchant. This news spread and more people caught monkeys and sold them to the merchant.
Then, the merchant announced that he will buy monkeys at $200 each. The villagers sold the remaining monkeys at $200 each. Then the merchant announced he will buy at $500 each! It took a lot of effort but finally, the villagers caught the remaining six monkeys, and they received $500 each.
Then the merchant announced he will buy monkeys at $1,000 each! The villagers were very sad as there were no more monkeys left for them to sell. Then, the merchant’s employee told the villagers that he will secretly sell some monkeys at $700 so that the villagers can make $300. Rich people bought monkeys in big lots. Poor people borrowed money and bought monkeys.
The villagers waited for the merchant to return. But nobody came. They ran to the employee’s house. But he was missing too.
Too late, the villagers realized that they have bought useless stray monkeys at $700 each but are unable to sell them.
Bitcoin is the next monkey business. It will make a lot of people bankrupt and a few people filthy rich.
