They absolutely have no legal basis, my only worry is that they have activists in SCOTUS which showed us multiple times that they don't care what the Constitution says.
Historically speaking, we Americans usually ignore what the SCOTUS says. Virginia was practically segregated into the early 1970s, for example, well over a decade after Brown v Board of Education.
That's the hilarious part of the SCOTUS. They kind of don't matter.
The response to an unjust SCOTUS is to ignore them. Like what are they actually gonna do about it?
Only works if everyone ignores them, don't see that happening
Step 1 of the plan is to at least make people aware of the plan.
There's more options available than expanding the court or whatever. Ultimately, the reigns of power largely rest in Congress and the President. Supreme Court is the moral center, they're only effective if people believe their judgements to be moral and just. Otherwise, their statements are just fancy words on a piece of obscure paper.
Supreme Court has no ability to write laws or enforce them.
Idk I like the idea of expanding the court.
Preferably vertically, using a rack.
