'A disgrace': Trump shoots back at Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/12/2016 | Al Weaver

Posted on 07/12/2016 12:05:41 PM PDT by orchestra

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump hit back at Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Tuesday after the longtime justice openly criticized him in a recent interview.

Trump told The New York Times that Ginsburg should apologize to her fellow justices for weighing in on the race, adding that her comments were "highly inappropriate" and a "disgrace" to the bench. He also said that he hopes that Ginsburg leaves the bench in the near future.

"I think it's highly inappropriate that a United States Supreme Court judge gets involved in a political campaign, frankly," Trump said in the interview. "I think it's a disgrace to the court and I think she should apologize to the court. I couldn't believe it when I saw it."

The dumbest justice on the Supreme Court made an ass of herself. Like a typical leftist, she’s oblivious to how inappropriate her comments were.

He’s right....A USSC member is supposed to be non political.

Keep this up Trump, and I will vote for you. Ginsburg not only owes the court an apology, she owes it to the American people.

That she would openly express political views is proof of how low-quality the current Supreme Court is.

Ruth Buzzy was way out of bounds on this. We are just coming unglued as a nation of blind justice. First we have the disgusting performance of Loretta Lynch’s shamelessness . Then we have a justice lady of the Supreme Court campaigning for the lying criminal hillary. It boggles the mind on judicial ethics. I think she should be impeached as nothing more than a political hack.

Leftists just can’t help themselves. Seems to me she’s scared to death, why else would she make such a fool of herself?

Somehow the US Supreme Court is not bound by a code of ethics but that does not mean that her comments are anything short of disgraceful and unethical. This is not the first time she has jumped into politics either. She made inappropriate comments in advance of the gay marriage decision and then refused to recuse herself. She maintained ties to a Leftist feminist political group while on the Court... but she gets a pass because she is a woman and the New York Times loves her. Guess what, not any more, because Mr. Trump is unafraid.

That’s true. They’re all scared. That’s a good thing. Democracy, freedom and the rule of law scare them.

She basically ensured that if Trump is elected the liberal wing of the Supreme Court will take a daily beating.

"I think it's a disgrace to the court and I think she should apologize to the court. I couldn't believe it when I saw it."

I agree........Her comments were beyond belief from an individual seated on the highest court of the land and is presumed to be non judgmental.

With that being said, if I had a case being ruled on by the Supreme Court I would demand that she recuse herself..........That was scary!

I see bader ginsburg’s comments as pure fear - they know Donald is coming.

She needs to quit.

Sometime after Jan 21 2017 would be nice.
