They could just "delay it till the election" get the increased voter turnout and then a week after the election fill the seat with a far right nominee regardless of who won. "The radical left committed mass voter fraud by mail!!! Since I am the legitimate winner of this election I will be picking a new justice VERY promptly!"
Every RBG fan was already fully committed to voting for Biden. Lots of right-wingers care primarily about SCOTUS and a lot of them might vote for Trump now, even if they were thinking about staying home or crossing over.

But but but what about the Lincoln Project?!?!?
I figure the assumption was always that whoever won this election would be installing a justice. They've probably already taken that into account.
Trump forcing in a judge would benefit him more. A bird in the hand, etcetera. I'd be shocked if they delay.
