Now if you’re asking me for a prediction, do I think SCOTUS is going to stand up to Trump in this way, particularly while he still has power? No.
But could they do it while maintaining the sort of logical consistency judges like to purport to have? Yes. The option is open if they want to take it.

Remember the prosecutions against Trump didn’t end because SCOTUS ended them. They ended because DOJ chose to end them after he won.
