Getting to that point confirms that the rule of law is dead. Anybody can be put in prison for their political beliefs at any time, except maybe a President or the very most powerful. Any normal Joe posting 'hate speech' doesn't get a Supreme court review.

Half the country confirmed in distrust of law institutions, the other half that the Supremes are compromised. That's how you get a stacked 15 Justices and then a while later 31 Justices and so on or mass political impeachments.

It's a no-win scenario and that's why both parties in the past avoided clearly political indictments even for obvious crimes.
