You're calling it the last authoritative institution, when two of the last three appointments (Coney and Gorsuch) to it have been made through an utterly insane hypocritical[1], and blatantly partisan circus.

[1] 2016 - It's inappropriate to do an appointment on election year! [2]

[2] 2020 - Of course we will fast-track an appointment on election year!

Overly dramatic. A lot of countries that are still countries have completely rewritten their constitutions a few times over.
