Dems better do what NEEDS done if they are in position to: eliminate the filibuster, pass a large stimulus bill, get Covid under control, and expand the courts. then win big in 2022 and 2024
there's no point in waiting around to see what new atrocities the Trump Court will unleash. they have already showed us who they are and what they are willing to do. SCOTUS today routinely accepts arguments that would have been dismissed as completely ridiculous a decade ago. and the degradation continues
SCOTUS is only the tip of the iceberg. it would also need to be coupled with lower court reform so it is all encompassing. the number of federal judicial positions McConnell intentionally would not let Obama fill allowed Trump and McConnell to PACK the courts with Federalist Society hacks. we haven't been wronged once (Garland), we've been wronged every time the GOP nominated in bad faith a lunatic extremist to the court
