How long until “the filibuster is the bulwark of democracy” and “the ideal number of Supreme Court justices is 9”?

The point is the Democrats wanted to add 2 states and pack the court in 2020 but Manchin and Sinema refused. Twitterati called the filibuster “racist”.

Republicans *could* pack the court in this Congress, but doesn’t seem likely.

Democrats will praise the filibuster tradition publicly now. 100% hypocritical. Which is fine.

neither will be challenged considering both house and senate are gonna be republican controlled

(I think the filibuster is good and SCOTUS should be 9.)

They did but extending it to the entire Supreme Court was huge for them. I understand that it’ll hurt them if they lose power but the counter argument is they’d be able to pass lots of popular legislation and would be rewarded in 2026 and 2028. At some point one of the parties will get rid of it.

Because it hurts them when they lose power. They kept it in 2016. 

Remember, Democrats were the first to cross the line in reducing it.

I don’t see why the Republicans keep the filibuster.

how long before “the election was stolen”?
