The Supreme Court shouldn't even be appointable by a politician at all. It otherwise will be too partisan. If you ask me, the best government is one where the most powerful are no more powerful than you and me.
But anyway, the Supreme Court should also be significantly expanded. C = 0.075 3sqrt(US populace + 2) would be a good formula, where C = court size. The populace is all residents, legal and illegal.
According to this formula, the US in 2020 should've had 54 judges. The supreme judges could be elected from a pool of multiple random ballots, out of a pool of all federal judges, whereas the latter could be appointed by the same method, through a pool of all, who have passed juridicial examination; the examination requirements are set by an independent Examination Commission, randomly appointed from a group of all federal judges, who then have to give up their federal judgehood for life. The position is for as long as they would be federal judges.
Any judge also may not be politically active, ever. Once become a judge, you can never run in life anymore for politics, and vice versa.
Edit: I'd also add that the Supreme Court members shouldn't be able to be removed by a politician - only by 2/3 majority of another independent commission. This Safety Commission, like the Examination Commission, has half the amount of the Supreme Court's members, so 27 in this case. This commission is composed from randomly chosen federal judges who aren't part of the other commission nor are supreme court members. The position is also for life.
The Supreme Court's power to overrule politicians' breach of laws should also not be removable; and it should have the power to fire the members of cabinet, if there is a 2/3 support within the court.
