I would genuinely like somebody to lay out for me the way Joe Biden is to assert dictatorial power in the wake of the SCOTUS immunity decision. I see people asserting it pretty confidently but I’m honestly at a loss for how it is supposed to actually work.
Like “he could just order the Supreme Court and Republican members of Congress thrown in Gitmo under their logic” is that true? That’s not really what I read. Could he have done that before? Was being prosecuted for it after all that was stopping him?
Yeah, i mean i think it is true. He'd have to persuade the men with guns but if they did he could pardon them and that'd be that. Though there are probably smarter fights to pick, which I think some people are seriously advocating.
1) I don’t think he’d persuade the men with guns but if he did
2) he could have pardoned them already, so we have to presume
3) the only reason he didn’t do any of this before, absent abject cowardice, was a fear of being prosecuted which scotus now removed.
