Reply to comment by liortulip in [OC] Supreme court is forecast to block student debt relief by liortulip

In theory, they could change some wording so that the debt doesn’t actually go away, but can’t be collected, so it technically isn’t debt relief, but that isn’t likely to work

Realistically, the only way this will happen is if dems get another trifecta, and with Manchin, they would probably need 51 senators. The court will say that only congress has the power to forgive debts of this magnitude and Republicans will never in a million years support this

Which would result in a metric F-ton of lawsuits on top of the political pressure on top of the lobbying on top of etc. etc. etc.
