Here is what everyone knows, but the Democrats understand would be a terrible campaign issue: Once the Democrats have clear majorities in Congress and the White House, they can expand the number of justices.
Yes, this could create a reaction: The Democrats add 4, the Republicans, when they get power, add 4.
Here is why that is not bad: Adding justices dilutes the power of each justice, which is fine with me: Each has too much power now. With lots, they'll have to sit on panels.
