The U.S. Supreme Court has been the most trusted branch of government among voters for more than a decade -- and while that still holds true, faith in the court is now near its lowest. In addition, the number saying the executive branch is their most trusted stands at a new low.
When asked which of the three branches of government they trust the most, 35 percent of voters choose the U.S. Supreme Court, according to the latest Fox News Poll. Thats down from 45 percent in February 2017. A record-low 33 percent chose the court in June 2005.
The executive branch is chosen by 18 percent, down from 26 percent two years ago.
Thirteen percent pick Congress as the branch they most trust, that remains unchanged.
Confidence in the Supreme Court is down across groups, with some of the biggest shifts coming from Democrats (down 30 percentage points since 2017), millennials (-21), and women (-15).
As Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg continues to recover at home from a December surgery, the poll finds shes the best-liked member of the court, at least for those who can name a favorite.
Overall, 22 percent couldnt name any of the current Supreme Court Justices.

Ginsburg is dead....now a has been...
Death is a good career move.
Not with those who really matter.
I wouldn’t accept anyone’s opinion on RGB unless they can name them all.

Lots of people have no clue who is on the Supreme Court. Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been in the news for her health problems, so her name comes to mind for people.
Remember the liberals, including some Hollywood idiots, wanted to donate a rib to her for a rib transplant?
The gap in the %’s tells you 34% don’t trust ANY branch of government. This is an increase from 16% in the prior poll. Very SAD.
These new agencies are clueless as to what data tells them. They want to quickly put a screen shot together....with zero actual analysis. And most folks fall for it. We as American’s get what we want.....low standards.
Who did they survey for this nonsense?
Just FOX silliness.
Tune in for a FOX NEWS ALERT!
Ok.
It’s true insofar as Buzzy is the only justice these morons can actually name in the first place, so she “wins” by default. The leftists have made her an object of veneration and worship.
It’s questionable whether she is conscious, maybe a coma?
proof that RBG is alive.
///////////////////////////
I think she slipped a note under her sick room door which said “I am still alive”.
Like President Wilson who carried on after a stroke when his wife repeatedly came out of his room and replied to queries from officials and news journalists who never actually saw him, and made important presidential decisions (all really his wife’s doing as he was totally debilitated) Ginsburg may have this remote message system going on indefinitely.
Just trust the liberal Dems. Trust is so important to our feelings. PBS has had self-help shows say that many times. Trust.
RBG is probably the only justice many of those polled ever heard of.
Screw the Democrat Thug Party.
Why BS. Shes my favorite justice on the court now
Shes also the favorite to be replaced next.....
image of RBG with wings and harp....
//////////////////////////////////////////
Not wishing it on her
but what if the image should show her dressed for a much warmer place where a harp would melt down and wings would burn up? Just sayin’.
LMAO!
shes the oldest most talked about justice there is.
IF you asked them to name all the justices I’ll bet she’d be the only one they all could name.
poll is bull droppings.
I think she made a cameo appearance at Bernie’s last weekend.
Fake News from FauxNews.
Total BS.
