This is making the assumption here that the court is neutral and isn't filled with humans with their own lives and agendas. Some make it a point to the bench like a legislature would, others know how their bread is buttered and don't want to rock the boat.
I know I'm committing a very obvious argument fallacy here, but the events that are taking place now have a lot of moving parts in them that took a long time to get this bad. We didn't wake up one day and the entire government is filled with terrible people. I mean it's usually filled with terrible people, but it's now filled with people who are in the pockets of global interests.
