I mean should the Democrats win the presidency, congress, and a decisive majority in the senate, then that's really all that would matter. Public opinion beyond that is largely irrelevant.

Expand the courts, eliminate the filibuster, pass a new Voting Rights act, make DC, PR, and NN states, cram a Democratic agenda through. Next election isn't til 2022.

And good luck on the GOP winning anything back in 2022. Senate map is favorable to Dems and the GOP will actually have to work to gain seats in the House since a lot of their redistricting shit is about to be unspooled next year.

Americans have the memories of goldfish. Just a few weeks ago people wanted to wait for the election. If Democrats pack the courts in early 2021 it will be a non-factor for voters in 2022. Only political junkies really care about the courts.

That's a pretty biased question. It's like asking, "Do you approve of Tom being a dirty no good theif?" when Tom actually just stole a loaf of bread because he's desparate and doesn't want his kids to starve to death.

Democrats are desparate and don't want their kids to starve to death. Either way you look at it, they got screwed out of a seat on the court. Things like statehood for DC and Puerto Rico just make total sense no matter how you look at it (if you actually believe in representative democracy), but they got pushed into, "court packing" by the Republicans. There's no way around it. They never in a million years would be having this conversation if not for Merrick Garland and 10 months of no confirmation hearings.

Yeah that's a tricky sell given that the Navajo Nation does technically have representation as the citizens there can vote in their respective state's elections. Unlike DC and PR who have no Congressmen at all.

Which is why it's sad that the upcoming Supreme Court is more terrifying given that they basically legislate from the bench. And their adherence to a world view that is rooted in the supernatural.

I mean Trump's president for one

and his approval hasn't cracked the mid 40s in 4 years

the take away from this administration was that public opinion doesn't matter. it's whatever you can get away with or grab at that matters.

hence why even moderate Democrats are starting to talk about expanding the courts and eliminating the senate filibuster
