https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/how-badly-is-neil-gorsuch-annoying-the-other-supreme-court-justicesGorsuchs speeches might appear less distasteful to his colleagues if he had made an otherwise more graceful début on the Court. As Linda Greenhouse observed in the Times at the end of Gorsuchs first term, he managed to violate the Courts traditions as soon as he arrived. He dominated oral arguments, when new Justices are expected to hang back. He instructed his senior colleagues, who collectively have a total of a hundred and forty years experience on the Court, about how to do their jobs.
What happened last November will have horrific, nightmarish results on so many of us.
I will NEVER let them forget, them who said what they said, did what they did.

Luckily, Trump and the GOP have been fairly incompetent at everything else.

I'd move that the results of the election be nullified, another election held...AND ALL OF THE ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT'S APPOINTMENTS ARE NULLIFIED.
If the political class doesn't have the spine to do that, I'd say a few million people holding a sit-in around the supreme court building for a few weeks might convince Gorsuch to resign on his own.
