I think for me it comes down to what will democrats do about it? They sure as hell aren't going to mobilize their base into mass action. Are they going to contest the legitimacy of the supreme court? I think they want to avoid that at all costs because it threatens the wider American political project and potentially their class hegemony. I mean just look how they did absolutely nothing for the confirmation this week. So how do they negotiate their need to support the legitimacy of political institutions with a desire to defeat Trump?

Personally I think it's unlikely to come to that point. I don't think Republicans who actually matter see Trump as the person to push things to the limit for. At a certain level I think they'll accept that a Biden admin will be more than tolerable on a material level. But hey we'll find out in a week.
