“If we start the process of trying to expand the court, we’re going to politicize it maybe forever in a way that is not healthy, that you can’t get back.” --Joe #Biden.
*GOING TO?*
Somebody tell the octogenarian executive here that #SCOTUS got politicized in a way we can't get back when #Democrats didn't pressure #RBG to retire and let #McConnell ratf*ck #Obama's Garland nomination.
I mean, we _could_, but Drug War Joe here is smothering that baby in the crib. /1
I think it's been confirmed that RBG was facing heavy pressure to retire, but she chose to hang on for strategic reasons, for personal reasons.
I really do like to remind people that the current makeup of the court was heavily influenced by RBG'a decision to be strategic, by her own choices.
It rightfully tarnishes her story.
