People like Cannon who see the law as a way to benefit partisan goals. And once his tax giveaway for the billionaires becomes law, he will most likely pressure Alito and Thomas to step down so he can appoint younger and even worse judges to the SC, perhaps the religious extremists’ favorite judge Matthew Kacsmaryk or the 5th Circuit whack job James Ho, although both are protégés of Leonard Leo and Trump is currently on the outs with him.
