"SCOTUS will steal the election for Trump" is one of those takes that was popular (for different reasons) both among a certain type of liberal and on the Trumpy right and obviously doesn't look too good in retrospect.

Some folks love to always have the volume turned to 11. But to prevent future election-stealing, it would be better to think through which parts of the system have been more vulnerable and which have been more robust.

The judicial system has displayed a strong independent streak for upholding the rule of law throughout the post-election period. That's a big deal. There are various reasons to be worried about the future and I am worried to some degree. But it's a big deal.
