      It wouldn’t shock me if SCOTUS calls take backsies if a Democrat ever gets back into office.

        They already did! The ‘presidential immunity’ ruling they recently made basically said that if a President does it, we (SCOTUS) will decide if it is an official act, and if it is, then the Prez is blameless, but if we say the act isn’t ‘official’ then WE will tell you the Prez is a baddie.

          appointing a Supreme Court Justice during an election year

          FTFY. Voting had already started when they rammed the handmaid in there to replace Ginsburg.
