Quite right.
But, the President was never supposed to be the primary check on federal courts. The first check on Scotus in the Framers’ Constitution is Congress. But the 17th Amendment neutered the Senate and left behind a runaway Scotus.
The SC is 5-4 liberal now. Roberts has dropped the mask, our only hope is RBG being replaced and while pains me to say but I think Thomas needs to retire this year as a preemptive move.
