The SCOTUS is illegitimate at this point. Prepare for years of terrible decisions. Or, do what I'm doing. Expatriate. This shit's beyond saving during this lifetime.

We need to stack the supreme court ASAP.
Biden just said how he's against that because that would be politicizing the supreme court.
Thing is, you can't win by playing by the rules when your opponent is constantly cheating.
The supreme court has clearly ALREADY become politicized, it can't get that much worse than rich white guys buying a black justice to do their bidding, now can it?
You know who will not have any issue stacking the SCOTUS?
The next Republican president.
The idea is in the table, and the GOP will not hesitate to add two more judges to solidify the court in their favor. This is where Democrats are indecisive and weak. Republicans will exploit any and all opportunities to consolidate their power. Just look at what is going on in Ohio right now.
It's not like there isn't precedent for it. Andrew Jackson did it. FDR threatened to do it, but the Supreme court caved to his demands to avoid it. There's no way we're going to let these judges decide our fate for the next 50 years. Eventually we'll get someone with the balls to stack the court. I'd also support term limits, but that would be allot harder to pass as it would require a constitutional amendment.
