So the Democrats cannot pack the Supreme Court today. But in the future, who knows?

So why weren’t “we” doing this during the two years that “we” had the white house and both houses of congress?
I know the answer. Because we don’t want to set a new precedent, pack the court, then lose power, and have the dems use the precedent to alter the courts even more.
But lo, they have threatened to break the precedent themselves.

I have no doubt that the Democrats will break that precedent the first chance they get. Todays Democrats are not JFK Democrats. They are much more to the left, and much more ruthless.
Their "long march" is structured in a way that offers them nothing to lose and everything to gain, albeit perhaps in small increments.
That is why unless we are able to select one patriot such as Trump after another, we tend to lose ground. See, for example, the past 70 years.
