I really thought I was cynical enough about the utter corruption of the right-wing bloc on SCOTUS, but it turns out I was still giving them too much respect.
Honestly still in shock that the most crooked American President in history said "I need immunity" and the GOP Supreme Court said "well, it's nowhere in the constitution, but sure, why not? Whats the worst that could happen?"
Re: the SCOTUS justice mindset, when you’ve lived and breathed one thing for your entire life and that thing requires faith in a lifetime appointment system and that system is in a nation showing itself to be one of the worst in the world, you can live in denial, become a mercenary, or fight.
The liberal justices are in denial bc they don’t want to admit their life’s work has been largely meaningless. The rest are just trying to secure enough power that their bloodline will continue if an unhinged troll with nukes doesn’t end humanity during the water wars.
