This isn’t Bush vs. Gore, this would be an insurrection against democracy

As was Bush v. Gore.

that will be plain to see to the majority of Americans.

As was Bush v. Gore.

You’re simultaneously underestimating the establishment’s ability to wag the dog and overestimating how willing the Dem leadership are to fight against great injustices, especially ones that are technically within the obsolete guidelines established in the 1700s.

Personally, I’m surprised it’s so low, but I guess we don’t talk to each other 😁

If SC tries to force an illegitimate Trump presidency down our throats there will be hell to pay

There should be but there won’t. Just like when they forced an illegitimate Bush president down people’s throats in 2000 and the powerful ignored the millions decrying THAT injustice.

Biden might also need to use some of his newly-acquired presidential immunity superpowers and ship the SC to Antarctica to do science research for the rest of their tenure.

Even if he’d ever do such a thing (or indeed ANYTHING that violates the rules and norms that Neoliberals consider much more important than any outcomes of following or breaking them), they made sure that what constitutes “official acts” is up to the SCOTUS themselves, thus effectively making any executive overreach by Biden just as illegal as before and any by Trump the law of the land.
