Ever notice that republican presidents are extremely dangerous threats to the entire world and dem presidents are tiny babies who can't be expected to accomplish a thing? Ever notice how whenever the dems have a trifecta, there's always juuuuuuust enough of their own party members fighting them to prevent any action?
Who is going to stop the president from ignoring a court order? Don't forget that the judicial branch firstly just made up their powers of judicial review, and have always relied on the executive branch for enforcement. I bring the up because Undermining the power of the supreme court is in and of itself a positive and democratic end, because the president is at least a little bit democratically accountable, while the supreme Court isn't in any way. To put it another way, an unelected council of lifetime appointees isn't a democratic institution. You are right that this isn't entirely genocide joes fault, the entire bourgeois "two party" regime is to blame. He is just the face of said regime
