It should be for everyone concerned with checks and balances.

Everyone watched Cocaine Mitch and his treatment of Garland and the hypocrisy now cramming in a justice weeks before an election so no, I will not get the vapors over something you would not care one whit about the other way around.
No.

Let’s not get too precious. If Clinton had won in ‘16 we would be working with 7 on SCOTUS, so the number of justices isn’t some sacrosanct number to the GOP.
Yes I’m counting on Sleepy Joe to bump that number up and pack it full of activist liberals.

I would probably not vote for a party who stacks the court. I am voting for Joe.

It’s in the DNC platform?
I don’t think they are going to expand the Supreme Court.
Yeah probably not. Just like Obama was another centrist and not the wild eyed Marxist I was promised.

Democrats aren’t Marxists. They never have been.
The only way I vote for Biden is he suddenly starts channeling Harry Browne and convince me it is a permanent conversion. Same with the annoying orange.

Voters don’t deserve to know Biden’s stance on packing the Supreme Court. Meddlesome voters getting in the way of Biden’s presidency. Who are they to question him? ■■■■■■■ deplorables.

No, it’s not in the DNC platform and the only way it could be done is if the Democrats control the House and the Senate as the power to establish the courts is given to them in the Constitution.
When you lose the ability to run on the economy it is time to break out the old standby of fear.
Would I vote for Biden if he said he’ll pack the courts?
I already did.

We are not talking about rearranging court seating. We are talking about increasing the number of Justices on the Supreme Court as was done in Venezuela, and its crushing blow to democratic government. From the OP:
.
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.”

Our country is infested with a notoriously evil Fifth Column movement at MSNBC, NEW YORK TIMES, CNN, WASHINGTON POST, ATLANTIC MAGAZINE, New York Daily News, Time, ETC., and their countless Yellow Journalists, who work hand in hand with the socialist controlled Democrat Party leadership to plunder, paralyze and destroy our free market, free enterprise, democratic system of government.
They sound like Republicans.

Another reason why maybe Biden shouldnt be elected, why bother voting for a canadaite who says that voters dont deserve to know? if they are willing to hide or cover up these kind of issues could you imangie if Harris or Biden admin make a decsion when it comes in foreign policy and they would be hiding it from the people?
not a good move.

They don’t feel “the people” need to know anything because these elitist scum believe “the people” are stupid.
