The Left tends to view the legitimacy of an institution purely in terms of its current ideological character.
The Supreme Court was sacrosanct when it was leftist, it's the enemy of all that is good and pure now that it has a conservative majority.
What's the degree of commitment to a purely transactional view of political norms and institutional legitimacy among lefties? That's where the difference between the long game and the immediate gains radicals arises.
The Supreme Court took a united stance on Dem efforts to go after Supreme Court justices with all the justices signing on to an explication of their governing codes while rejecting congressional oversight.
If there's anyone likely to take a long view of the game, it's justices who have lifetime appointments.
If Biden gets a second term, the composition of the court will likely and unfortunately change.
That the Dems can't even think of the long game testifies to the degree they've been radicalized into trying to collect all their winnings now and stomping on anyone who gets in their way.
