      This is the Rubicon. Cross it, and the damage to the American republic as we have known it is irreparable. We've had cries of wolf before about threats to judicial independence & the rule of law. This wolf comes as a wolf.https://twitter.com/politico/status/1107646605073760256 …

      Expressing a desire to expand the court, trying to expand the court, and actually succeeding in expanding the court are three different things. Even if one of them were elected in 2020, there is no way they would have the political power to follow through on doing so.

      "Let's elect people who want to end the American Republic and hope they don't succeed" is not a plan.

      Tampering with the size of the Court gave us Dred Scott and the Civil War. I prefer not to go back down that road.

          Look I'm not gonna call you a liar but I've literally never heard someone claim the civil war resulted from court packing so I'd love a source on that

          Dan this is even more historically ignorant than all of your other bad opinions.

          Ending slavery was good. The follow through was entirely too weak and slow (a century from emancipation to the Civil Rights Act), and the cost too high, because of decades of kicking the can down the road beforehand.

          Sure, those Southerners would have totally given up on slavery if not for Drew Scott. Please.

          That... is not what happened. At all. Slavery. Slavery is what led to the Dred Scott decision and the Civil War. I can't imagine more of a non-factor than the size of the Court.
