Technically, nothing really changed, as this was a foregone conclusion. The court suspended their own ruling in the event it was inevitably challenged. It was always empty - but extremely dangerous - virtue signaling. Basically, the only thing the original ruling did was make things more confusing, and shake faith in Our Democracy™ (good!).
It was extremely stupid. You had a state court declare that he broke a a very narrowly defined federal law without any charges filed, let alone a conviction, when the conduct in question was prima facia perfectly legal.
The Dems always think that they're the only one who will use their dirty tricks, and they never learn. Dems removing the filibuster for judicial appointees is how Trump was able to get so many federal judges in office during his presidency.
If they had gotten away with this there's nothing stopping a state like Mississippi from just declaring the Democratic party to be a terrorist organization under the federal definition and criminalizing contributions to them. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
Unfortunately, you're spot on. The Democrats have been taking advantage of the right trying to appear "reasonable" for years. They're a cancer, and the only way to root them out is to go on the offensive.
Look at how they immediately screamed "reee" and floated the idea of changing the composition of the Supreme Court as soon as rulings started dropping that didn't favor them. To them, the rules are only of value when they advance their agenda. When laws are inconvenient they are simply cast aside. The only way to win a battle like that is to do the same.

that would never happen because they're a bunch of pet cucks deathly afraid of being called "racist"
