> a SCOTUS that's stacked with Trumpist ideologues.

It's majority conservative, but that's not the same thing as what you're claiming here.

It has 3 members appointed by Trump, but even that doesn't make them Trumpist ideologues.

I really can't find any other possible interpretation of their wall to wall decisions on anything election related. They are a knowing and enthusiastic participant in the coup.

Thomas is a born and bred loser, but otherwise they're afraid of being assassinated. Judges are under massive, massive amounts of threat whenever they think to hold Trump to literally any scrutiny whatsoever.

Not a conspiracy theory, this is an open discussion topic among federal judges within their own conferences.

Ah yes, rule of law is when judges get their decisions overruled by invisible terrorists.

I don't believe for a second that Trump, being the narcissist that he is, would appoint anyone but ideologues.

Probably more loyalists than ideologues. It’s the Project 2025 influence that has the ideologues. And the Thiel/Vance sector has the traditional influence-focused corruption, while the Trump family is more low-trust-society personal enrichment grift.

Quite a perfect storm.
