@Morning1 This scenario was brought to mind while thinking about what Netanyahu's coalition tried with their SC when he got back in power. His claim was their SC wielded too much power. It’s on hold for now, but I doubt he’s forgotten.

@leswarden The US and Israeli systems are so different in their designs that the two situations aren't really comparable.

And in fact that was part of Netanyahu's complaint, as he pushed for a court that was a bit more law based in the absence of a strong constitutional framework.

The US constitutional framework, and its defining of the role of the SCOTUS, is exactly the distinguishing factor at the heart of the whole argument, and the one involving Trump as well.
