      Hot take (not entirely serious):

      Now that Presidents can’t be prosecuted for official acts that are crimes, Biden should enact Project 2025 EARLY give himself unitary executive power, and refuse to leave office.

      This would either destroy the country, save the country, or force SCOTUS to reconsider their ruling.

      Of course he could just deem the imbalance on SCOTUS a threat to national security, and write an official law saying that all major parties must be equally repressented by the judges on there (a one out, one in law).

      That would also work, and run less risk of tearing the country apart.

        That isn’t how p2025 works, but in theory…he could do something a lot like it. While it is better than the other guy, it would be a deeply fucked precedent…

      From this day forward, every day that Biden doesn’t have the Republican judges killed is a betrayal of democracy.

        He can’t because it was tossed to the lower court to be put on ice until the election decides how they should rule.

        That is as dumb as the typical right-wing ideas. Impeach, and abuse executive orders would be less stupid.
