Yep. And both Democrats and Republicans called him out on it as a blatant power grab, as thats what it is full stop.
I believe 2 Justices switched their stance and ruled in favor of FDR before Senate voted on his Bill to pack the court.
The vote may have gone differently if the Court struck down the New Deal.
FDR played chicken with the Supreme Court and the Court flinched.
