President Joe Biden had harsh words for the Supreme Court earlier this month after it ruled that presidents enjoy a presumption of immunity for official acts they take while in office.

However, Biden is apparently prepared to back up those words by proposing a set of controversial reforms. 

Proposal to include term limits, ethics code, and a constitutional amendment

According to Reuters, the president is planning to impose term limits on America's highest judicial body along with an enforceable code of ethics.

Biden is also expected to put forward a constitutional amendment which would limit a president's immunity from prosecution.

The president mentioned wanting to reform the Supreme Court last week when he gave an address announcing that he will not seek another term in office.

Lindsay Graham says Biden wants "to destroy the court"

Biden's push to reform the Supreme Court has been welcomed by Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who told CNN host Jake Tapper on Sunday that it is "actively undermining our democracy."

Meanwhile, The Hill reported that South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham told CBS News host Robert Costa that any proposal "will be dead on arrival in the Senate."

Graham accused Biden of wanting "to destroy the court, adding, "They want to pack the court. They want … to undercut the conservative court."

"They've tried to marginalize the court and destroy the Roberts court. The Roberts court has brought constitutional balance back to the court, and the liberals in this country want to pack the court. They want to destroy the court," he insisted.

Columnist says proposal is "a non-starter"

Biden's ideas also didn't go over well with RedState columnist Ward Clark, who wrote, "Let's be real here: None of this will happen. And that's a good thing."

"Joe Biden, to add to the long, long list of things he never understood about our republic and how it works, doesn't seem to understand that the Supreme Court is a co-equal branch of government, on the same standing as the Executive and Legislative branches," Clark argued.

"What's more, the constitutional amendment that will reportedly be proposed is likewise a non-starter," the columnist insisted.

"The Constitution is, by design, difficult to amend, and that's a good thing, or liberals would have eliminated most of the Bill of Rights by now," Ward pointed out.
