At a guess, impeachment. Only, rather than the half baked previous attempt, it’ll be carried by representatives from both sides as a blatant breach of the rules. From the republicans because he’s a dem and from the dems because they keep trying to play fair.

Ok so you can acknowledge that impeachment has already been tried and failed. If the consequences for doing a thing are already applied, there are no consequences for doing a thing.

The difference is, I don’t think it would fail in the scenario you put forward, so there would be a consequence. Now if we assume it’s biden, and he’s unlikely to see out another term even if elected, maybe the risk/reward ration swings enough to make it a realistic possibility, but in general I suspect a president assassinating multiple supreme court justices would lead to them being impeached successfully in short order.
