beebuster,
I have considered your point, too. It probably is worth it to get a few more justices ASAP.
One crucial factor is the fecklessness of the Democrats. If we restrain ourselves from using the “nuclear option,” there is still every chance that once they regain the Senate, the Dems will use it anyway . . . whether or not there was a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ to make SCOTUS appointments subject to the filibuster rule of 60.
Democrats can be trusted . . . to use every trick, lie, or deceit necessary to get and retain power and stamp out liberty as they enact their communist agenda.

Bears repeating because it’s a 100% certainty.
I agree. Crush them to dust. No quarter. Those who counsel restraint are weak and have defective memories.
