Elon's point isn't partisan. It's about who gets to rewrite the rules. In 1937 FDR, fresh off winning 46 of 48 states, tried to add up to six justices. His own party controlled the Senate, and its Judiciary Committee still killed it: "a measure which should be so emphatically rejected that its parallel will never again be presented." The Court has had 9 seats since 1869. In 2021 a bill was introduced to make it 13. That same year the House passed DC statehood, 216-208. Change the referee, add 4 senators, legalize millions of new voters, and you don't win the next election. You win all of them. I live in Europe. I know what it looks like when one side treats the rules as a tool. 51 senators. That's the whole firewall.
