I would LOVE IT if we hold the senate, gain the house and Trump is re-elected, for obvious reasons, and have Trump and the Repub controlled congress play games with the dems and say now WE WILL PACK THE COURT!!!!!!
If it’s so great why are they remaining silent? Every day it looks worse for them.
"Senator, I am speaking."
If Biden thinks the voters should have a voice in the current opening, they should definitely have a voice in three or four new seats on the court. He won’t answer because he knows what he wants to do is unpopular.
Republicans need to DEFINE court-packing. Believe it or not, there are many who believe Republicans have been “packing” the court by confirming so many judges. Democrats have been trying to misapply the definition to mean confirming lots of judges. Republicans need to call it “expanding and politicizing” the judiciary, or some other similar nugget. They are losing time.
Republicans will turn up the heat on Democrats

Really?
When has that ever happened?
"The Constitution was written to be understood by the voters; its words and phrases were used in their normal and ordinary, as distinguished from technical, meaning; where the intention is clear, there is no room for construction and no excuse for interpolation or addition [emphasis added].." United States v. Sprague, 1931.
"The Constitution on this hypothesis is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they please. Thomas Jefferson to Spencer Roane, 1819.
"Laws are made for men of ordinary understanding and should, therefore, be construed by the ordinary rules of common sense. Their meaning is not to be sought for in metaphysical subtleties which may make anything mean everything or nothing at pleasure." Thomas Jefferson to William Johnson, 1823."
"Beware of English-to-English translations of the Constitution!" me
Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government desperate Democrats home in November!
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.
I dont see any problem with voting Republican ticket for 2020 elections.
Insights welcome.
Yes, and it shows. Nowhere did I read in the story that packing the court would become a nightmare for Biden.
