Go ask FDR
FDR lived in a different time, when even members of his own party were willing to defend the integrity of the Constitution.
If we are STOOOOOPID enough to hand the other branches back to Democrat control they WILL do this. Mark my words.
FDR had to still contend with people who valued the Constitution in his own party. The modern progressives do not. They are all about Arbitrary government.
Yep, he got slapped down for even thinking about it, and he we generally popular and had control of congress. Sure, it's possible, like it's possible for me to some day pitch for the Dodgers. Nothing wrong with false hope though:)
That’s what Ortega did in Nicaragua. How did that work out?
It’s a serious threat. FDR only backed down because the court went along with his New Deal legislation, and he didn’t need to any more.
If the Democrats were to try to increase the size of the Supreme Court, Trump could veto the bill, and it is unlikely they could override the veto. Of course they would want to law to take effect in 2021 so that Fauxcahontas or Kamala could be the one to choose the new justices.
