The former VP refuses to answer if he will 'pack' the Supreme Court
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
For you, Mr Vice President,
if Senate Republicans, we were
originally talking about the
Supreme Court here,
if Senate Republicans go ahead
and confirm just as Barrett,
there has been talk about ending
the filibuster or even
packing the court adding to the
nine justices there. You called
this a distraction by the
president, but in fact it wasnt
brought up by the president. It
was brought up by some of your
democratic colleagues in the
Congress.
My question to you, you have
refused in the past to talk
about it.
Are you willing to tell the
american people tonight whether
or not you will support either
ending the filibuster or
packing the court?
Whatever the position I take,
that will be the issue.
The issue is the american people
should speak.
You should go out and vote.
You are voting now
vote and let your senators know
how strongly you feel
vote now
make sure you were in. Let people
know
hes, not
answering the question
im
not going to answer that
question, because
why
wouldnt you answer that
question.
The radical left
would.
