This ruling does have the potential to further aroad the court's already dismal public legitimacy. The media now reports that alido's leaked draft and the fact that it was leaked, is undermining confidence in the court. What's missing is a plausible alternative that feels winnable and vicerally imaginable enough that people will fight for it. In the absence of such a violable alternative, we will continue to see the left space demobilized. I don't know if democrats dreams will come true but I certainly hope that we don't see republican sweep congress.
