Where's the evidence that his threat to 'pack the court' caused the court to do a 180?
The reason the revised legislation was upheld was due to the wording in the bills. The wording was slightly changed so as to conform to standards of the time and then it was upheld. It wasn't a case of something clearly unconstitutional that was nearly unchanged being upheld the second time around.
There is a goddamn mountain of information about this.
