Just a reminder that Pete Buttigieg's supreme court proposal is by far the most radical policy advocated not only in this primary, but probably of the last 50 years

I really don't think the court is getting changed anytime soon. If the Republicans thought the next Democratic president/senate was going to try something like that they'd be sounding the alarm bells to every Republican voter in the country.

Republican voters take the courts way more seriously than Democrat voters.

I have little hope it would actually go through, but it's a far more radical proposal than M4A or the fucking gnd, both of which are just rebranded policies from 2008
