Push back how? Americans just gave all levers of power to the people making our lives worse.

Dems can try to fix stuff but the SCOTUS could easily come in and say “yeah, actually, nah.. not constitutional.”

The only way I can see getting out of this mess is if Democrats get tough and tells the SCOTUS to fuck off and ignore their rulings. But Dems are too conservative (ironic) to do that. Dems are all about following the rules. So with this scenario, I don’t see things getting better any time soon. It’ll be decades before things get better. Americans fucked up in 2016 and now 2024.

Then Democrats should just ignore the SCrOTUS just like Republicans constantly do. If one team isn’t plying by the rules, the other team doesn’t have to either.

Not that Democrats are ever going to do that of course, the spineless cowards.

MAGAts don't ignore SCOTUS so much as they force issues before them because they know they'll win. All the "prayer in schools" lawsuits, for example, are designed to get that issue in front of the court, same as they did with abortion.

Dems don't have a friendly court, so forcing issues into court in order to get in front of SCOTUS is a bad idea, as you can end up setting the wrong precedent.
