Remember when the SCotUS was considering the president shouldn't be convicted of crimes while in office? Biden could have walked up to any GOP fuck and shot them in the face with zero consequences. Yet this power is only being used to not convict Trump of all the crimes democrats are in a frenzy over.
I really don't believe SCOTUS would have let Biden get away with that. They wrote that decision is such a weasely way that it gave Trump practical immunity, but allows them to decide when it applies to other presidents.
Still I agree that if Democrats actually cared about things they'd consistently force SCOTUS to overturn popular policies, if only to show the public they're simply unelected political actors.
Ya see jack, ya gotta have decorum when you're violently centralizing power and engaging in class warfare. Muh decorum!!!
