Republicans will control the supreme court for the next 20 years. We will see couple of resignations soon so they can appoint younger, crazier judges. Hopefully progressive democrats will be able to stop the slide towards dictatorship but I don’t except any swinging back.
Allow me to introduce you to my friend court packing.
But also in terms of things like Roe, all we need to fix that is a law passed through congress. The court would have no constitutional basis challenging it at that point. If they did it loops back around to justifying court packing.
Hopefully the pendulum swings back hard after this fucking year.

I like your optimism.
I wouldn’t say optimism. There’s historical precedent for this. Whether or not it will happen I have no idea.
