All of that goes by the wayside when Dems threaten to kill the filibuster, ram through new states, pack the court, and impeach people just to delay Supreme Court hearings. Now the election becomes a referendum on the new, far more threatening batch of crazy Dems are proposing.
And it IS crazy. If Democrats were to kill the filibuster, add states, and pack the court, the fundamental nature of the federal government would be completely rewritten. Essentially, a bare majority of Democrats would be able to, unchecked, rewrite the Constitution.
States would correctly resist. Imagine a 53-vote Democratic majority (adding four Dem Senators from DC and Puerto Rico, e.g.) ramming through a gun confiscation package. Imagine a 13-member packed SCOTUS greenlighting that measure. You think TX, MS, GA, FL stand for that?
Checks and balances were designed to require overwhelming consent to major political changes. Democrats have long objected to those checks and balances, but have refrained from utterly abolishing them. That's because the consequences of abolishing them is national dissolution.
That's why Biden is hesitating here. He's afraid of ruling out going nuclear -- which would likely win him the election -- because he's afraid of sapping the base of its energy.
He's also afraid of endorsing going nuclear, because he's afraid the election will then become a referendum on his endorsement of radicalism.
the real nightmare for Biden is this takes all the focus off COVID
With 200,000 dead and many more to follow, trust me -- Americans can multitask on this.
Cry me a river, Ben. Who woke up on the snowflake side of the bed today? Ben did!
Adding SCOTUS justices isn't unconstitutional. Nine justices are set forth by statute
He doesn't care
And that is why I'll be voting a straight Democratic ticket for the first time in my life this November
