I think this is the kind of situation where you pull out every single stop because it is literally the future of the country. I don’t care what back room deals are being made. I care about there being a future.
You know, rather than having a ruling that is basically “Anything that is an official act is legal and if there is a dispute we’ll eventually rule in favor of the republicans when it gets to us”. Which… opens up the kind of options that this article is saying would help trump even though they clearly wouldn’t.
Stack the court how? Congress can set a different number, what’s the plan to get it through the House and Senate?
pull out every single stop
Like what? You don’t have the numbers. This is my issue, this is the equivalent of saying “stuff, just do stuff”.
The President no longer needs to get anything through Congress. He can just do it unilaterally and dare SCOTUS to overturn its own recent opinion.
But he actually can’t. He can’t expand the court and he can’t seat justices. You’re just saying nonsense.
At the end of the day, republicans and dinos are just looking out for their own self interest. I don’t care if we need to rebuild Epstein’s Island and dedicate most of an annual military budget to get them on our side, we do it.
But also? As I have repeatedly alluded to: The Supreme Court just ruled that anything the president does is legal. Up to and including siccing seal team six on a political rival.
Yes, the Supreme Court are the ones who eventually decide if something counted as an official act. But there are supreme court approved ways to create openings to get more legal minded justices on the bench.

Here’s the problem, they understand the power of the Supreme Court. There’s nothing you can offer them to untie this particular knot, none of them are voting to expand the court.
