Yeah. I had to go second opinion on that, but since you're both rational people, I figure you are right to worry.
I mean, it's a mess really. It feels like giving in to a propensity towards violence. I also have a feeling that republicans would not hesitate a second to stack the court themselves now. Graham would just say that Biden wanted to do the same thing and so it's perfectly ok that they now expand the court and put even more ultra conservatives in. And it would get echoed by all conservatives. I have a feeling this will happen if they somehow hold presidency + senate and really, why wouldn't they, they would get through with it. Won't lead to a civil war this way around.
What a mess.
