How?
Since the current Congress has little interest in checking Trump's power grabs, I don't think it really matters what the Court does.

Chief Justice Roberts may have delivered a fatal blow to the republic when he created a new constitution in order to keep Trump out of prison.

That got me thinking: Could any of the conservatives on SCOTUS be planning a presidential run, but first they want to erode all the checks on POTUS? That's playing the long game!
