CHESTER TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday avoided answering whether she would expand the Supreme Court to 12 justices and, instead, responded by talking about Jan 6.
A registered Democrat from Lansdowne, Pennsylvania, said she hasn’t made up her mind about whom she’s voting for next month. The voter asked Ms. Harris at a CNN town hall whether she favors expanding the Supreme Court.
Ms. Harris said Americans have lost faith in the Supreme Court before quickly pivoting into a lengthy diatribe about the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
“In the 13 days, you will decide who is sitting in the Oval Office on Jan. 20. And on one hand, you have in Donald Trump someone who has increasingly proved himself to be unstable and, as we have established and the people close to him have established, he is unfit to serve,” she said.
“We’ve seen the image mentally of him sitting in the dining room off from the Oval Office watching for hours as people violently attacked the Capitol. You can be sure because he said he’d weaponize the Department of Justice to go after his political enemies,” Ms. Harris continued.
Ms. Harris has previously suggested that she’s open to expanding the size of the court and imposing term limits on justices, but has never explicitly called for those policies.
