Would you vote for Biden knowing he plans to expand the Supreme Court’s size?

[johnwk]

For those who do not know the threat to our democratic system of government, if our Supreme Court were to have its number of seats doubled in size and its new members arbitrarily filled by the leadership of an existing political party, Venezuela ought to serve as a chilling contemporary warning, and cause every freedom loving American voter to be fearful of “court packing”, and that means “court packing” by either political party!


In 2012, Hugo Chavez, the socialist president of Venezuela died, and was replaced by Chavez’s hand-picked, Nicolás Maduro. Soon thereafter, the Supreme Court that was “packed” with 12 new Justices loyal to President Hugo Chávez’s party, begins to neuter and destroy Venezuela’s democratic system of government. See: 2013: Maduro Challenged by Opposition Leader

“As Venezuela’s situation worsens, the Maduro regime arrests opposition political leaders and shuts down news websites and detains journalists, leading to criticism from the U.N. and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. In 2017, Venezuela’s Supreme Court, filled with Maduro loyalists, take away the powers of the National Assembly, increasing Maduro’s control. The following year, he is reelected overwhelmingly in an election that a coalition of other western hemisphere nations says “lacked legitimacy.”

In another article dated, 2004, by Human Rights Watch, Venezuela: Chávez Allies Pack Supreme Court we find:

“Five years ago, President Chávez’s supporters helped to enshrine the principle of judicial independence in a new democratic constitution,” said José Miguel Vivanco, Americas director at Human Rights Watch. “Now, by packing the country’s highest court, they are betraying that principle and degrading Venezuelan democracy.”

And here we are today, with a Democrat Party Leadership controlled by “socialists”, refusing to tell voters if they intend to “pack” our Supreme Court, which most certainly would lead to a devastating assault on our democratic system of government, and reduce it to a Venezuelan type dictatorship, ruled by unelected Justices hand-picked by the Leadership of a socialist opposition political party.

Before you vote, I suggest you view the following video giving a glimpse into our future should our Supreme Court be packed by the Leadership of a political party.

And as you can see - right in this thread. Blind partisanship is what leads to tyranny.
Democrats simply don't care. And therefore, do not recognize it for what it is - tyranny. By definition.

Yes. I will still vote for Joe Biden even if he were to publicly state he would pack the court if trump pushes through confirmation without regard to election completion or outcome. Elections have consequences and so do tactics of the current duplicitous republicans to pack the court without regard for listening to the American People.

Yes. No way I could ever vote for Trump, who by the way is closer to Chavez and Maduro in what he wants to do in holding and consolidating power. As in Venezuela, you have a corrupt individual at the top who is the main reason for the downfall of the country. One of the reasons you righties should stop using it as an example...because that's exactly what Trump and the Republicans are doing. And it takes a lot of doing to expand the SC here in the United States. Just ask FDR.

Since the republicans have been cheating to pack the supreme court with far right radical extremists, I have absolutely no problem with Biden not cheating and expanding that court.

If you don't like it, too bad. You people shouldn't have cheated, lied and stole Supreme Court seats.

I hope he fills the court with far left liberals just to piss you off and I sure hope to see you lose it when he does.

 

[DrLove]

Biden hasn't said whether he would or wouldn't. Stop making shit up. You'll get what ya get and ya won't pitch a fit. Sound good?

 

[Maxdeath]

Are you serious? Of course some will vote for Biden. Even if he came out and claimed he would kill everyone that voted against him and even their pets. He has the D behind his name. Thats as far as the thought process goes.

Dems claim they believe in law and order and all the other things that Americans care about. But only as long as it is the law and order that the believe in. Otherwise it has to go.

 

[Meister]

I don't think Biden CAN give you an answer on that question.
He doesn't know what Kamala is going to do with it once she takes over his presidency.

 

[Meister]

Please stay on the topic going forward

 

[Invisibleflash]

OP, these piddly things don't matter. A vote for Biden is a vote to take down Trump...by any means necessary.

It is just like asking me if Trump got the virus will I vote for Biden now.

Why?

OK, Trump got the virus, so now I will vote for Biden to destroy America and confiscate my guns?

Lunacy.

I doubt it. Most people see the "packing" thing as just a tactic to defeat the tactic of attempting to pack it from the other side in a last ditch effort before losing the election. If the people get a chance to be speak, through the election, I would leave it alone, no matter which side won. But, that is just me.

I don't think Biden CAN give you an answer on that question.
He doesn't know what Kamala is going to do with it once she takes over his presidency.

And, let us not forget Kamala is on the record saying she is open to the discussion about enlarging the number of S.C. Justices.
