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

Blind partisans no matter which side they are on don't care about the long term consquences they just see what they think will benefit them at the moment. In 2013 when Harry Reid used the nuclear option to get lower court judges and cabinet nominess confirmed on a simple majority instead of the 60 it had been he did so in my view believing the Democrats would keep the Senate in 2014 and the Presidency in 2016 never considering they could lose both which they did and the Republicans took full advantage of Reids actions. Mitch McConnell using the precedent set by Reid did the same thing with Supreme Court Nominees have no doubt the Democrats will take full advantage of that first chance they get. If the Democrats pack the Supreme Court be rest assured the Republicans will do the same when they get the chance and we will be on a never ending game of one upsmanship where the American people are the ones who lose no matter which political party is doing it.
 
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.

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.


Trump wants to expand the Supreme Court? Really??

You should have done a yes/no poll. The results would have been interesting to watch.
 
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?
And of course, being the brilliant retard you are, you are lobbying energetically, on behalf of a pair of democrats who have literally said, "literally mind you," that no, we will not tell you our agenda, you need to vote us into office to find it out! This actually transcends the concept of impossible stupidity, and reveals grim accomplishment of DNC controlled public school system, which performed "intellectual abortions" upon yourself, and tens of millions of of other defenseless American children! :boohoo:

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.


You do know what's hilarious is Kavanaugh, Gorsuch and Roberts vote the law and not one side or the other. All have voted against the right one time or another and it's going to happen many times in their tenure.



Gorsuch shouldn't be on that court. That seat should have been filled by Obama.

The republicans refused to even have a hearing or even meet with Obama's nominee. Saying that the rule was no Supreme Court appointments in an election year. To let the people decide.

Now they have thrown that so called rule out the window and are going to ram a judge that the majority of the nation doesn't want onto that court.

We need a BALANCED court. One that's not controlled by one side or the other.

This is a lifetime appointment. Those judges don't answer to anyone. Like the republicans, they can make their own rules and no one can stop them.

I think the supreme court should have a lot more judges on it. Nine people shouldn't have the power to dictate the lives of the people of our nation. Especially nine people who aren't put there by the people and who don't have to answer to anyone.
 
Don’t care.
