The liberal justice’s decision to retire after more than 27 years on the court allows President Joe Biden to appoint a successor who could serve for several decades.
Biden nominates Mike Dipshit. Dipshit is slightly center-right but the libs force themselves to pretend that he's good enough. His confirmation process totally surprises the libs. He cruises through. The senate vote is 64-36. After Dipshit's on the court Mitch McConnell has a hot mic moment where he can be heard saying "Dipshit is one of us," and he chuckles like a sick chicken.
A few days later the libs are agitated. There's a rumor that the hot mic moment was staged and Dipshit is one of them. Then it's a couple weeks of breaking news. Dipshit hid his ties to an extremist libertarian group that compared taxes to the Holocaust. And Dipshit also hid his religious past. He had been a member of a extremist Christian church known for it's hardline anti-abortion views and its hatred of blacks, Jews, gays, and "other denigrates". Dipshit remains incommunicado. The libs are panicked and mad at Biden: "Who the fuck is Mike Dipshit really?"
Biden has a particularly tumultuous press conference involving covid, Russia, the economy, among others. Biden is clearly a tired old man but he has enough common sense to deflect Dipshit questions promising "everything will be fine. Just fine." Biden leaves the podium and a reporter shouts out to the back of Biden's baby-like head "Did you even vet the guy?" Biden comes to a dead stop and freezes up. He turns around and marches right back to he podium and the mic.
He's clearly angry and flustered. When he talks spittle clearly shoots out of his mouth: "Justice Dipshit is not a 'guy'. He is Justice Dipshit. Don't you forget it. He is an honorable man and we asked him many questions..." The press core smells blood in the water and for a torturous three minutes Biden tries to explain what "we asked him many questions" means.
In the next few days it turns out that Biden's team didn't actually do a single thing to vet Dipshit. He met with them a few times and as he baldly lied about everything they accepted his answers as gospel. Dipshit breaks his silence in a short tweet by saying "Abortion is a sin and America is a white Christian nation." Libs go apeshit and the elections are a horrorshow for the dems. They get crushed in the worst bloodbath in history. There isn't even a close second.

More likely libs vote for dems because republicans would have nominated Bob Fascist instead, so they need to do harm reduction. It's still a horrorshow for the dems, but that's because the GOP media convince a bunch of swing voters that Mike Dipshit is a communist.
I like another possibility...

The sad thing is that Bob Fascist is actually super left wing but he's always misjudged because of the name
imagine having a first name called fascist.
Or he surprisingly picks someone who's actually quite decent... and then Manchin and Sinema block him.
That doesn't make for a good story but it is certainly a strong possibility. And it would be pretty funny too.
