like that’s pretty much how trump is able to any damage at all right now. the supreme court is sick of his ass, shouldn’t we be protesting at their doorstep to get it overturn?

We should, but they won't. That's also not the way the supreme court works. They don't just decide things whenever they want. They have to have a valid court case to create a ruling, which may or may not establish precedent.

Yes, but also a valid court case to challenge this previous ruling is literally any court case where Trump did something that would be illegal for anyone but Trump. Pretty sure the contempt of court, extra-judicial deportation and imprisonment of hundreds of people without due process and insider trading over just the last couple weeks would qualify. Hell two of those things are already in the courts right now.
