Court Packing and the 2022 Political Calculus

The hosts discuss the possibility of the Democratic party reviving the "court packing" threat if the Supreme Court rules against vaccine mandates. They suggest that such a ruling could serve as a "battle cry" for the 2022 and 2024 elections. The conversation touches on the necessity of ending the filibuster to confirm additional judges and the political risks involved in such a move.
