Amy Coney Barrett is 'Close to Perfect'

Judge Barrett is doing wonderfully at the Senate hearing, as you would imagine. Everything about her, she's sort of, you know, close to perfect, which is what you have to be at this point with regard to being a nominee for judge, you know. Look perfect, talk perfect, be very bright, be very calm, be very fluent, have a great family.
And she has all of that. If they, uh, if they pack the court, I, I actually at this point I, I never make—
well, not never, very rarely do I make predictions. The consequences of packing the court are so severe that it— I don't think the Democrats would go that way. What they will do, if they can, is add 4 more seats Democratic seats to the Senate by making Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia states, and they will further erode the Electoral College. Want to remind you that there are states trying to get rid of the Electoral College in a, in a roundabout way. They have pledged that their electors will not follow the vote in their state, but will follow the vote in the country.
I don't know how they could get away with that, but I guess states can run it.
Now these are Democratic states, so I believe Colorado is one of them, but let's say Colorado votes Republican and that those electoral votes are the difference between a Biden or Trump win, but Biden gets more votes nationally. Even if Colorado votes Republican, theoretically, their electors would have to vote Democrat. I am not even sure that what I'm saying is accurate, which is very rare for me because then I don't want to broadcast it. But I, I know that there is an end run being done in various states around the Electoral College.
