All your examples from "fill the seat" are from the 1840's or earlier. Court packing occurred in the 1860's. Seems like there's no cognizant line the GOP can draw anymore.

Thing is, Dems may pay no (net) price for *moderating* the court. It could even be popular. You have to consider a range of risks here. Dems only have to run faster than the GOP, to escape the bear. Trump's 4 years have been spent poking the bear.
