Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office. There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.

Pack the Court with 1000 new justices, reverse 80% of its recent decisions, and then strip it of 99% of its jurisdiction. This Court is absolutely lawless and beneath contempt. And should be treated accordingly.

I suppose a loophole here for lower courts to exploit is "what counts as an official act?" Like, maybe ordering the assassination of your political opponent isn't "an official act." Maybe taking a bribe from Saudi Arabia isn't either. (Obv SCOTUS could say they ARE, but until then....)

I think the lower courts should ignore the SC, and rule how they always have before. If the SC wants to take each and every case and overrule it, I guess that's their prerogative but the lower courts don't have to obey in advance. This is what the 5th Circuit has been doing forever anyway.

Absolutely. Corruption only works when we work with the corrupt!
