Yesterday, Kamala Harris, just like Joe Biden, made it clear that she did not want to answer questions about packing the Supreme Court if Republicans move forward and confirm Amy Coney Barrett to fill the vacant SCOTUS seat.
Today, however, there was a baby step in that direction courtesy of Joe Biden answering a reporter’s question this way:

“You know that the moment I answer that question the headline in every one of your papers will be about that.”
Clearly Biden doesn’t want his opinion on that to be a headline issue. Does Joe’s answer sound familiar?
Brought to you by the same party that said, “We have to pass this bill to find out what’s in it.”

You have to vote for the bill to find out what’s in it. https://t.co/ZHrSOCX8BH

Step aside, Nancy Pelosi, because Joe Biden’s got a fresh version of your infamous quote!

In other words, I’m going to evade the question because I will definitely be planning on packing the courts.

Biden obviously doesn’t think his voters deserve to know what they’re voting for. https://t.co/jvIGc9QaAG

Biden’s just trying to run out the clock. For the most part, the media will let him.
