    Default President Biden Could Immediately Nominate 10 New Justices

    The Constitution does not say how many Supreme Court Justices there are supposed to be. If Republicans want to ignore tradition, then Democrats can too. A newly elected President Biden could nominate 10 new justices, which would be the majority of the 19 member court.

    I am tired of Democrats always respecting the rules while Republicans break them.

    You are the dumbest motherfucker going. The President can't just add 10 new Justices.

    Congress can approve them.

    Holy fuck, how fucking stupid are you.

    Using your argument, Trump could add 15 now right?

    It's this level of stupidity that is dooming the Republican Party.

    would they all be "black women?" how many Hispanics? any whites?

    does Biden even consider judicial temperament? no.

    The idea boomeranged when Franklin Roosevelt tried it but that was before the Senate's traditional norms had evaporated. These days it's anything goes as McConnell himself has demonstratede, so why not.

    trump would need to get reelected, have Republicans retain a majority of the Senate, and have enough Americans believe that it is in the good of America to continue tearing up the old rules....

    Also, only one of his daughters is a lawyer, and he does not like that one much, so I doubt he would nominate her.

    The Constitution allows for Congress to decide on how many Justices sit on the Supreme Court's bench. Article III ...

    The Senate is still controlled by Republicans.
