    Also, the reality is these rulings are only when it benefits whomever pays them the most.

    You’d have to convince Putin and a lot of trillion dollar corps that own these justices first. Which seems very unlikely.

    He could sacrifice himself for the greater good and commit illegal acts to wipe the SCOTUS and start again with people that will hold him accountable for his illegal acts. He has a unique opportunity that will go away either through reform or the dismantling of US democracy. Either way, the opportunity is now or never

      The scorched earth approach would cause problems for Kamala’s campaign. After the election however there are a couple months where Biden is still in charge and could go scorched earth with impunity (which would also demonstrate how stupid that system is as well).
