Biden now resembles FDR in one respect–his policy initiatives are being frustrated by a right-wing Supreme Court. The Court’s enthusiasm for the major questions doctrine pretty well guarantees that this trend will continue. What will Biden do about it?
Supreme Court reform will not be a centerpiece of his 2024 campaign, because he will be portraying himself as the true institutional conservative in the race, while the GOP nominee will be a dangerous right-wing extremist. For progressives, however, the issue will not go away, because the combination of the filibuster and major questions makes it impossible for them to implement their policy objectives through either legislation or administrative action. Look for Supreme Court reform to be a major topic of discussion from Democratic presidential candidates between 2024 and 2028.
