    You’re completely missing the fact that the final arbiter of what consists of an “official act” is SCOTUS.

    You’re completely missing the fact that if Biden were to actually use the powers SCOTUS granted him to their fullest effect, the three liberal justices would be the only ones left alive.

      First, do you think Seal Team Six would carry that order out?

      Do you think Seal Team Six wouldn’t possibly take Biden out after he gave that kind of order?

      Do you think that some members of Seal Team Six might be highly Conservative and loyal to Trump and the Supreme Court, and not to Biden and an order to take out the Conservative Justices?

      Do you think Team Red would idly stand by while Biden orders the assassination of the leaders they knuckled down for TWO DECADES to get installed?

      Pro-tip: You’re on loony island right now. What will happen here is that Seal Team Six would reject the obviously illegal order, report it, and Biden would have horrible egg on his face. There’s a damn good chance that he’d then either be 25ed away, or outright impeached for illegal orders, and then arrested and tried for attempted murder, completely bereft of any of the protections you think he has. Trump would then sail easily to election over a Harris ticket, simply by pointing out that he was right all along and Biden and the Democrats were bloodthirsty murderers just looking for an opportunity to kill Republicans and impose a Socialist Communist Dictatorship on Mama’s Apple Pie and all the Bald Eagles in the world. And then we’d get a REAL Fascist Dictatorship where Republicans could roam the country looking for people they don’t like and oppressing them.

      And you really have to disrespect Biden to think he’d even BEGIN thinking about doing this. The man’s a good person. He’s not looking to join Team Republican in the new Fascist paradigm.

      No I’m not missing that at all, it’s insane and not remotely helpful. It’s pretty goddamn naive to think that assassinating 2/3 of SCOTUS somehow puts us in a better position to fix the country but you do you.
