Just going to focus on the first part cuz I don't think we're going to really progress on the other parts and we seem to have an understanding.
Buden didn't even try to pack the court. The Dems had the Senate and the house and the presidency in 2021. I don't remember Biden even trying to pack the supreme Court. It'd be one thing if he tried and the Senate wouldn't give him the vote of a simple majority for his candidates. Then we could say Biden's cool but some Dems suck. But he didn't even try. Why are we pretending like he would have?
Edit: also sorry if I come off like an asshole I don't mean to. Also hell yeah 420 dude ๐๐ I'm lighting up now myself
I know this, it would have been shooting himself in the foot politically. He might do it if he loses before he leaves office where it can't effect his presidency directly. Smart? Sure, smarmy absolutely.
There are things that are possible and things that are probable, in politics the overlaps are rare and slight.
