Supreme Court needs to remember the fate of all Supreme Courts under autocracies. Once they allow the autocracy to form then they will then only be allowed to live so long as they rubber stamp what the supreme leader says. They lose all power and relevance. If at any time they are inconvenient, they will be removed.
If they want to give all this power to the current president, the next president can order them arrested, and their seats vacated and replaced. Who's going to stop them? They set the precedent for the next president.
Does Julius Caesar ring a bell? There won’t be another. Except by decree. Julius Caesar appointed Octavian as successor and once he murdered the others (Brutus and Anthony) that was it.
