The really bitter irony here is that SCOTUS is making the president a king while a Democrat is president. They aren't worried about it because they know Democrats won't accept Biden actually acting the way they are saying he can.

After today Biden should just go ham and start doing everything regardless of the law or process or whatever. It’s all legal for him now. Then at the last minute before leaving office the Dems should ram through the “Bet You Regret That Act” that explicitly makes presidential crimes punishable.

I've realized this recently: they're pushing through such absurdly abusable tenants because they know that Democrats are too cowardly to actually act on them. They'll just wring their hands and fret until a Republican gets the authority necessary to exploit the shit out of these rulings.

I'm not making excuses for the cracker jack Court and don't agree with the decision but "official acts" does set SOME sort of bar.

I am a pretty mild-mannered Democrat. I think Biden should capture the SCOTUS majority as well as Trump and hold them as enemy combatants. I agree with you, but I think the limit here isn't the Dem electorate, it's the Dem establishment.

sort of with you. But Joe’s keeps saying his primary goal is to save our democracy. since those six judges now have bestowed upon him unlimited powers and complete immunity for ‘official acts,’ we might be surprised how he wields his newly-identified powers.

It's notthe Dems won't accept Biden doing them, its that the Dems & Biden follow the rules. While the GOP gleefully runs around grinding said rules into the dirt. Not saying get down in the mud with the GOP, but a little "good trouble" would be a great idea right now.

Our entire future will be thrown away by these pussies because they refuse to actually wield power when they have it. They have doomed us and our children, and their children. Congratulations dems, give yourself a round of applause!

If we ever get control of the courts back we need some kind of doctrinal way to tell lower courts that SCOTUS rulings after 2016 don't have precedential value.

FFS. THIS RULING DOES NOT APPLY TO BIDEN. The court knows this, Biden knows this, why TF are people having trouble understanding this?

I support any action the president takes to defend our democracy. Some things would be near equal to t’s crimes but worse would be to let him have power if he can be stopped.

Also they'd probably come up with some tortured explanation that Biden had done something in an "unofficial" capacity and therefore conveniently didn't get immunity
