‘Enjoy your new team’! Pro-Biden, Principles First™ conservative flabbergasted that Dems want to make good on their SCOTUS-packing promise

Democrats have only been talking about this since Donald Trump was in office, before Joe Biden was elected. And yet, somehow, Principles First™ conservatives like Heath Mayo, whose conservative principles compelled him to vote for Joe Biden in the presidential election, are expressing shock and dismay at Biden and Democrats’ push to pack the Supreme Court:

Good grief. When constitutional norms are ignored, it doesn’t mean we should destroy the rest of them. This is an incredibly short-sighted and self-serving proposal that would do great damage to the Court. https://t.co/wjJ709nqU4

I’m sorry—you’ll never convince me it’s wise governing practice to allow a party that wins a single presidential election and a narrow Senate majority to abolish the filibuster and add four Justices of its choosing to the Supreme Court overnight.

“But Mitch!” is no answer.

“But Trump!” was Heath’s answer for a long time. It still is sometimes.

Seriously—how can you not see that you will lose whatever majority you create as soon as you lose the next election. The other side will be so fired up, it will create itself TEN new Justices because it will say it needs to correct the damage YOU did.

See the bigger picture.

The irony of Heath Mayo telling Democrats to see the bigger picture when he apparently completely missed what’s been right in front of him should not be lost on anyone. And while we’re disgusted by Democrats’ efforts to remake the Supreme Court in their own image, we’re nonetheless willing to rub Mayo’s nose in it. He — and the rest of the Principled Conservatives for Joe Biden — deserve it.

I was under the impression that you affirmatively voted for this

Are you honestly surprised? They signaled they’d do this. When you play with fire with your vote, it’s on you when you get burned.

You knew this would happen if you voted for Biden. So you decided to then vote for Biden. Get bent. https://t.co/2GdQWytDtv

You voted for Biden. You voted for this. Welcome to the jungle.
