Original Note:
President Trump, by definition, did not “pack the court” but did appoint 3 Justices to vacancies during his term, which Senator Warren seems to purposely conflate. The only President to attempt expanding or “packing the court” was FDR, failing to pass Congress in 1937. https://www.rutgers.edu/news/what-court-packing https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/how-fdr-lost-his-brief-war-on-the-supreme-court-2 https://supremecourthistory.org/schs-historical-documentaries/fdr-courtpacking-controversy-full-script/
