1 year agoI honestly don’t know if I believe any of this. It could be one big distraction, and I think the people in high positions of power are skeptical as well.
In my view, it’s a stop gap measure. The real issue is the lifetime appointments. We just had one president choose 3 justices, who all get lifetime appointments. That is beyond insane, and if packing the courts right now will help alleviate that imbalance I think it should be advocated for. Of course in the long term we will want term limits, or maybe some sort of rotation system, but for now I think that’s the most politically effective way forward.
