Yes, maybe there's some clever version of hardball Biden's team can come up with, something that doesn't involve ordering assassinations.
But one thing he *should* be able to say is "I reject the idea that the president is above the law, and I vow never to use this illegitimate 'immunity' defense."
"This Court has an expansive view of Executive Authority that is at odds with the system of government this country has always had. We are a nation with no need of Kings, and this opinion is there to bring them back for one man who has already vowed to be a dictator. I reject it wholesale"
"We are a Republic. A country that chooses its leaders by election, and whose leaders are not above the law. No president who is accountable to you needs this immunity. I do not need it. But make no mistake: this Court is about enabling a future dictatorship under Mr Trump. That is outrageous"
"In recent weeks and months, the Court has gone plainly past the mandate the Constitution provides for it. This country needs a strong Court, but a Court that operates in the best interests of justice, and which makes decisions by law; not by preference. For this reason it must change."
(then insert your big idea of how to change it, e.g.)
"The Court has decided to become a political, partisan organization. That is a gross distortion of its role in the constitutional structure, and it is both sad and infuriating that they have chosen to do so. America needs to repair the Court"
"If elected back to the Presidency, and if we together retake the House and hold the Senate, I pledge to you this: we will pass a comprehensive Court Reform Bill. We will correct its ethics, and expand the Court to correct its anti-constitutional mistakes, and get this country back on course."
"The future of this Country is up to you, not them. We reject their anti-constitutional activism. We will restore the Constitution. This country needs no kings or dictators. It has no need of judges who would end our democracy. It is a Republic if we can keep it. In November, that choice is yours."
just needs to keep it short, narrowly focused and centered on values, driving home the difference between himself and the dangers of Trump, and anchored on one big idea to correct the Court. Then say "thanks, god bless America, the best days of the Republic are yet to come" and then leave the podium
Yep.
I already wanted him to do a 4th of July message bc defending America is when he's at his best & it could help erase the debate issues.
SCOTUS just gave him an opportunity to put that message in the history books.
Hopefully his speech writers are familiar w/ the Gettysburg address's brevity.
