Kristol, former conservative and editor of The Bulwark, supports expanding the Court as a response to Republican actions undermining liberal democracy.
He aligns with Democrats like James Carville and Eric Holder, who advocate court expansion if Democrats regain full control, aiming to secure progressive policy changes.
