If the conservative court acts egregiously, the public will turn against them and support adding justices. Even then, it shouldn't be enough new seats to make liberal justices a majority, just enough for parity. If the court can manage not to piss off the public, congress shouldn't add seats. They SHOULD add PR as a state, though.
Did majority of Americans wanted the GOP to steal a Supreme Court seat?
Turning the other cheek simply means both of your cheek bones will be broken. By the time the public turns against the GOP, there would be no recognizable United States left.
No they did not. But if a majority of the public doesn't support adding seats to the court, we'll be handing the Senate back to the Republicans in 2022, and guess what happens to a Biden nominee at any level then? It's not turning the other cheek, it's not walking into a sucker punch. The conservative court obstructing FDR changed their tune when packing the court became a real possibility, and that's what we should hope for, because if Dems add three, the Republicans will add five next time they're in power.
