President Donald Trump on Friday warned that Democrats would pack the Supreme Court and end the Senate filibuster to advance radical legislation when they return to power.

"The Democrats number one policy push is the complete and total OBLITERATION of our great United States Supreme Court. They will do this on their very first day in office, through the simple Termination of the Filibuster, SHOULD THEY WIN THE UPCOMING ELECTIONS," Trump posted on Truth Social.

"The Radical Left Democrats are looking at 21 Justices, with immediate ascension. This would be terrible for our Country," he added. "Fear not, however, Republicans will not let it, or any of their other catastrophic policies, happen. Our Country is now in very good hands. MAGA!!!"
