What a nice thought, too bad Biden didn’t do anything over two years ago when it would have actually mattered.

Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema already said they weren't going to support that, so what do you suggest the President do without a Senate majority?

Oh then it's okay he didn't even try anything until he realized he was so unpopular people are asking him to step down.

That's not what I said bro.

People need to be upset at Biden not doing things he has the ability to do, not things he doesn't. Fixing SCOTUS isn't going to happen without either a major legislative change or now (thanks to SCOTUS) Biden doing some major unsavory things he has absolute immunity for.

On that last part, you're not understanding the full awfulness of the ruling. The court ruled that the court decides what is and is not an official act. Biden has no immunity because this supreme court will 100% rule that anything Biden does is not an "official act".
