I don't see any good coming from Biden taking a stand one way or the other at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't sure right now other than wanting to keep it on the table. Could be a great bargaining chip a few months from now if he wins, or there could be some other reason that pushes him one way or the other.
There is no reason to keep such a dumb idea on the table. Denounce it or own it. And if you're threatening to change the number of justices on the court to use as a bargaining chip, that's literally undemocratic.
RBG denounced this stupid idea by the way.
How is it literally undemocratic to pass a law that changes the number of justices on the supreme court? Congress has that explicit power and why should there only be 9 - if the country feels strongly against it, they won't give the WH, Senate and House to democrats.
I'm kind of on the fence, but I don't think it's too extreme or would cross any line that hasn't been crossed already - I just think if Democrats sweep they should put serious effort into making a less divided country.
On the other hand, I think it's really silly to argue that the court should lean one way for basically a generation because the last judge happened to die in September instead of Dec or later.
