All that's left now is for him to refuse to leave the office and pardon himself. Lol.
The Supreme Court's recent precedent has essentially set the stage for a modern day King Charles / Oliver Cromwell situation.

The Supreme Court’s precedent had zero to do with Biden’s ability or decision to blanket pardon a private citizen for known and unknown crimes
Oh I know that. I'm just saying when you give people blanket powers, you can't really be upset when they use them for whatever purposes they deem just. If you don't like the way a president pardons someone, don't give them blanket pardon powers. If you don't like a president not being held accountable to the law.... then don't given them blanket immunity.
The constitution could really use an overhaul to install more protections from corruption and maleficence.
Memory (and precedent) lane....

A President Shouldn’t Pardon His Son? Hello, Anybody Remember Neil Bush?
Nobody defines Poppy Bush’s presidency by the fact that he pardoned his progeny. The moral: Shut the fck up about Hunter Biden, please.
Too much crap is on the honor system. That's why Trump is getting away with a lot of stuff and not much can be done about it. They need to abolish recess appointments for Cabinet positions. They should only be allowed if the reason recess appointments were created for in the first place can be proven to exist at the time. And they need to be proven for each appointment. And whoever judges whether that is actually happening, needs to be given a route to be checked by another branch. We need checks and balances to be emphasized and enstated in more instances than they ever have.
