    This is great argument for Dems to expand the courts, if you think about it.https://twitter.com/PatrickRuffini/status/1312463918904692736 …

    Let’s be clear here. Confirming ACB is probably worth more than winning the election and definitely worth more than whatever marginal cost might be incurred at this point. https://twitter.com/HotlineJosh/status/1312444794900082688 …

        Correct. If courts are so high stakes to cause this behavior, they need to be made less high stakes.

        Making the courts less high-stakes politically is orthogonal to expanding the courts.

        Republican senators have been on record about expanding the judiciary. Sen. Todd Young wants the Indiana Southern District court expanded because the majority of judges are Clinton and Obama appointees.

        The Dems have spent a decade saying the GOP will suffer for breaking norms. None of it has ever registered with the voters, who don't care about arcane procedure.

        And neuter the SC for good. Term limits, expansion, randomized case assignments, regimented appointments, etc

        This is also a great time for Biden to come out and threaten to do it if they don't stop trying to ram Barrett through.
