They would just say for Biden it doesn’t count. Immunity only goes into effect for presidents whose ideology is deeply rooted in the nation’s traditions

Like, how long are we supposed to take this shit?
They don't have the votes for that. They do have the votes and legal precedent to "unpack" the court if they want, it seems.

That can be step one. However you get there matters little to me.
I'm just saying there's no legislative route to pack the courts atm. There does seem to be a way to creatively deploy executive power to make sure the six GOP justices are no longer serving, but that would require admitting temporary defeat on the American experiment so that it might live again.

I understood what you were saying. I was saying unpack, and then repack. Again, however one wants to get it done. And, we’ve admitted temporary defeat numerous times.

In all seriousness, if Biden informed Manchin/Sinema that they will be prosecuted if they don't vote to end filibuster/appoint four new justices, wouldn't that conversation be presumptively immune from prosecution, since it's a discussion about how to advance the president's agenda?

Dude’s 82 and his own party is trying to push him out, what does he have to lose?

If they’re dead or in jail they wouldn’t be able to, though.
Joe Biden wasn’t even allowed to forgive student loans, but Trump is OK to incite a coup. Yeah, I get it. Good thing I didn’t waste $200k on a law school education.

The sad thing is that Trump is gonna weaponize this. You know his advisors are gaming this thing out as we speak.

Except we all know this unfettered view of the powers of the presidency absolutely will not apply to Biden or any other Dem who becomes president (assuming there is ever another).

To be clear: I still believe in morality being a higher law set to take in account, of course, even if supreme court sucks, because morality is the way

Mostly it’s the ones with members who are the problem.

But the Dems will fail to do it, yet again. They cannot cope with ruthless cheaters and conmen. They cannot cope with not being nice even if it is to save America.

Not when you realize those acts would not be ruled as official by the same court that came up with this decision
