Biden wants to ‘pack’ Supreme Court – www.detroitnews.com
Vice President Mike Pence made a campaign push Wednesday for President Donald Trump in West Michigan by saying Democrat Joe Biden wants to “pack” the Supreme Court with liberal justices….
“When you’re running for the highest office in the land, you owe it to the American people to say whether or not you’re going to respect the highest court in the land,” Pence told a crowd of a few hundred people.
The vice president said Biden would add seats to the nine-member U.S. Supreme Court and appoint additional justices. It would be the “biggest power grab” in American history, Pence said.
Biden said Tuesday he is “not a fan” of adding seats to the Supreme Court but didn’t rule it out. The former vice president contended that Trump’s filling of existing court vacancies is somehow court “packing.”
