Thing is, they don’t have the same opportunities. The one reason why trump has been able to push things through in this shitty manner, is because the Republicans have stacked the Supreme Court (because the holes from people dying got filled while Republicans were in power) and they have majority control of Congress.

So why wasn't Biden stacking SCOTUS?

Because no judges died during his reign… they’re lifetime appointments.

You're misunderstanding me. I did not say Biden could've appointed more judges. I'm saying Biden could've stacked (or "packed") scotus.
