You think the media would fight it anyway? Maybe Fox will make a scene and a few youtube videos, but otherwise they'll just say it's necessary to save the world and overcome the science-denier obstruction

I see what your saying but if a past president has done it before we would literally have no leg to stand on to fight it, especially if it’s upheld in court when it will obviously be challenged. Democrats bit themselves in the ass by raising trump up because they thought he was a sure loss, then twice because they got rid of the senate 60 vote rule so we got two Supreme Court picks, and maybe a third soon too. I don’t want to see us make the same mistakes.
