"Yeah, well when I ran for the Senate back in '21-'22, I rejected those things. I strongly rejected trying to pack the Supreme Court or to change those things. You know, we were the Democrats it's like, you know, you don't change the rules if you didn't win. It's like, win more elections, and then you are able to change those dynamics the way it was designed to be in the Constitution right now. So I strongly reject that."
"The senator, a moment later, also weighed in on the House of Representatives passing a bill that condemns the horrors of socialism this past week. Fetterman said he would sign a similar bill if it entered the Senate, saying that he has talked to plenty of people who have escaped from socialist countries and 100% hated it. They say it's a disaster, and they can't believe America's even having this conversation, Fetterman said."
Sen. John Fetterman rejected James Carville's proposals to expand the Supreme Court to 13 members, add two new states, and eliminate the filibuster. Fetterman said such ideas reflect losing-party thinking and argued Democrats should win more elections rather than change constitutional rules. He reiterated that he rejected court-packing during his 2021–22 Senate campaign. Fetterman said he would support a Senate version of the House bill condemning socialism and cited conversations with people who escaped socialist countries who called it a disaster. Fetterman has appeared more frequently on Fox News and showed visible scrapes from a recent fall.
