    It would all be up to how the Executive and Legislative branches react to the court’s actions. The House is Republican controlled and will likely side with the Supreme Court, thus rendering Congress from acting. Meanwhile, Biden isn’t even willing to change the courts, let alone challenge their legitimacy. He will likely go with whatever the Supreme Court decides in order to appear like he’s being impartial or bipartisan, when the reality is he will always be accused of sabotaging the Republicans by the Republicans.

    That would only leave the people to react to the Supreme Court’s decision, which if its anything like Dobbs or any other protest over the last 20 years, The Supreme Court has nothing to worry about.

      I believe the smart move is to let it all play out and not cause a Consitutional Crisis. There is no reason to destroy our government for someone like Trump. If I was running against him I’d be trashing him ruthlessly. Don’t give him any respect.

      How would Biden “change the courts?” (I presume you mean Supreme Court)

      He has already nominated a liberal justice, which was about the only thing he had the power to do. With a minority in the house and the ever slimmest majority in the senate, expanding the court or taking down one of them for corruption is not going to happen.

      If you want to change the courts, it has to be done by voting blue in state and local elections.
