NEW DELHI - President Donald Trump on Tuesday turned his ire on liberal U.S. Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor, making a highly unusual call for them to recuse themselves from any cases involving him or his administration.
“I just don’t know how they cannot recuse themselves with anything having to do with Trump or Trump-related,” Trump said, adding that Supreme Court justices should be held to a “higher standard.”Trump throughout his presidency has criticized federal judges after rulings he did not like. Critics have accused him of political interference in the courts and seeking to compromise the independence of the judiciary.
Trump’s administration has made numerous quick appeals to the Supreme Court, sometimes bypassing lower federal appeals courts - a hallmark of its legal strategy partly because of the high number of policies blocked by lower courts early in his presidency.Legal scholars said while the strategy may seem rational it endangers the credibility of the office of the U.S. Solicitor General, who is responsible for defending the administration’s policies at the Supreme Court.
“It’s almost what she’s trying to do is take the people that do feel a different way and get them to vote the way that she would like them to vote. I just thought it was so inappropriate,” Trump said of Sotomayor.
Or may he shouldn’t be in court so often for his Ponzi schemes
It's UnfitForOffice 45 who should Resign not those two legitimate Supreme Court Justice judges. TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw Corruption under Trump Administration bankrupted USA with trillions of Deficit ! CorruptTrump needs to go! TrumpIsAGlobalEmbarrassment LiarInChief
RBG has been clearly biased against the President from the start, she should recuse herself if Trump is the subject but she’s a Democrat so...
After all how can he MAGA make america greedy again if he is not appointed dictator for life. King HumptyDumpty the first.
It is so disappointing to continually be shown just how naive and stupid Americans are when it comes to the con man Dipstick Don!
In that case, let them AND their families vote too. Egomaniac dicktator. Yes, purposefully misspelled.
Yeah, and Gorsuch and Kavanagh should recuse themselves as well.
Trump wajnts to be lilke Putin, a dictator
Why did they need a spokesperson to say they had no comment 🧐
Do any Trump supporters think this is wrong
Rightly so.
If there is any validity to his position, then the same should hold true for the justices who are obviously Trump fans. But would that leave anyone in the room to actually pass judgment on any of it?
We've already seen what expert Trump is on the nuances of the law. He should just eat another cheeseburger and keep watching TV.
Disturbing.
Loser. That’s all Trump is.
🙄😆😳 That’s not how that works, that is those of us who’s read the US CONSTITUTION and understand how the 3 branches of government works and have passed the US Constitution rest in order to vote. So that’s not going to happen, not until pigs fly, and even they seem grounded!
I look forward to a day when we once again have a President who has read the Constitution, understands it, and believes in it.
I can’t blame him, they are clearly biased and have made comments to that effect.
That'll be ok if the 3 conservative judges recuse themselves from everything else.
If someone talks against the
