      You dramatically misunderstand how hard power clings to power and moreover with this court money. If their judgements have no effect there’s no reason to buy them anymore.

        This is the kicker.

        If the Supreme Court is seen as defunct, the court is no longer valuable. All those bribes they received will stop, and I would imagine some may come asking for it back with fewer words.

          Yep. Roberts is willing to service Trump, but is also mindful of maintaining his own power.
