what if he keeps executing SCOTUSes until they agree to absolve him?

Yep, I drew out a plausible plan in another thread on how that could work.

Arrest them on corruption, Espionage, domestic terrorism, etc charges. Either move them to an offshore blacksite, or "accidentally" kill them during the arrest.

That would certainly fall under "official acts", and if it's overstepping authority, well, who cares because even if they're deemed crimes, they were done in the context of official duties to keep this country safe.

And then when the corrupt SCOTUS members are purged, fill the seats with those that will uphold that Bidens orders were official acts. And Biden can pardon those executing his orders.

This is exactly what the SCOTUS just enabled. It's absolutely abhorrent. And Biden would never do it because it's obviously anti democratic and would establish a dictatorship.

But Trump WILL do it. And the current SCOTUS will allow it.

Then we’ll have to explain it to them in ways they would have understood.

If Biden were a just president, he would destroy the justices until they imprisoned him and fixed the law
