"I want to be a dictator. Just kidding. Nanananana you can't touch me"
It's a dangerous crossroads. The precedent would break this country...
And 3 of the judges making the decision were appointed by the guy on trial. Clarence Thomas is openly corrupt. And I wouldn't depend on Roberts for any my moral backbone.
I've been pondering for a long time about how SCOTUS and more than 1/3 of the Senate could essentially take over the country over night. That case where they decided whether a state could overturn election results without federal interference gave me worry. But luckily most of them weren't that radical. At least not right now.
I'm sure they have no desire to give Dark Brandon carte blanche to whatever the fuck he wants to do.
Of course not, but that's not really how they think. They tend to do what's best for them now, and then ignore the rules in the future when it hurts them.
Rules for thee not for me.
Declaring that the sitting president can essentially act as a dictator is most definitely bad for them right now lol

Right there ya go. OTOH, I don't give a shit if he appointed them. They owe him nothing, he cannot do anything to them. It just doesn't work that way.
Afraid this might be a close one.
Nothing in the constitution that says we can't have a dictator.
Supreme Court, probably
Fine! The moment they rule this, Biden should step up and take the position. See how quickly they backpedal.
This is so true. I’m just so happy he hasn’t taken Trump up on all of the things that Trump says that he would be able to do if reelected.
Can you imagine the precedent this would set?
