By speaking out on this, he is actively politicizing the court. It points to both his ignorance of Court history (the court has already been expanded several times), there is no reason to believe expanding it again will result in a loss public respect. At least no more so than the blatant steamrolling and gaslighting the court now experiences with it's uber-conservative majority.

But really, this is probably nothing more than an attempt to misdirect attention from his conflicts of interest arising from his wife's political activity.
