Joe Biden has come under increasing pressure to tell the American people whether or not he would pack the Supreme Court as president.
He has consistently refused to answer the question, as has his running mate Kamala Harris.
This week, Biden gave an absolutely stunning answer to the question when pressed again by a journalist.
Biden said voters ‘don’t deserve’ to know his answer.
FOX News reports:
Biden says voters don’t deserve to know his stance on packing Supreme Court
Democratic nominee Joe Biden on Friday said that voters don’t deserve to know if he would attempt to pack the Supreme Court if he wins in November and Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed to the high court.
Biden was asked in Las Vegas, Nevada, about his position on packing the court with extra justices — something that has seen support from a number of Democrats, particularly since President Trump announced his intention to confirm Barrett to the seat left vacant by the death of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
On Friday, a KTNV reporter asked him again about whether he backs court packing and said: “This is the number one thing that I’ve been asked about from viewers in the past couple of days.”

“Well you’ve been asked by the viewers who are probably Republicans who don’t want me continuing to talk about what they’re doing to the court right now,” Biden responded
“Well, sir don’t the voters deserve to know…?” reporter Ross DiMattei asked.
“No they don’t…. I’m not gonna play his game, he’d love me to talk about, and I’ve already said something on court packing, he’d love that to be the discussion instead of what he’s doing now,” Biden said, likely referring to President Trump.
Here’s the video:

“No, they don’t deserve” to know.
So not only is the Left not answering whether they will pack the courts, their standard-bearer thinks you *don’t deserve* to know whether they will. pic.twitter.com/cEj0dV5p6I

This is simply not acceptable for a presidential candidate.
The American people do deserve to know what Biden plans to do, and he needs to say it.
