Justice Ginsburg Regrets ‘Ill-Advised’ Remarks about Trump
Breitbart ^ | 14 Jul 2016 | Alex Swoyer

Posted on 07/14/2016 11:44:06 AM PDT by detective

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg — who was appointed to the court by President Bill Clinton — issued a statement on Thursday saying she regrets her “ill-advised” remarks about presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump. “On reflection, my recent remarks in response to press inquiries were ill-advised and I regret making them,” Ginsburg stated on Thursday. “Judges should avoid commenting on a candidate for public office. In the future I will be more circumspect.”

No apology. No statement about the need for the Courts to avoid getting involved in electoral politics.

Just a carefully worded statement saying she will be more "circumspect" in the future. Circumspect means guarded or careful.

Ginsburg new exactly what she was doing. She gave the information to the media knowing it would be published and widely disseminated.

Ginsburg is merely political. She does not care about the law, the constitution or the values that made America great.

She only cares about the leftist agenda. She wants Clinton to win and will work to help her win.

Ginsburg is done. She can’t put the bullet back in the gun.

She should resign by sundown.

That will be 2 justices that Trump will appoint to replace Scalia and Ginsburg.

That’s liberal fascism. Obama, Clinton, Comey, Lynch, Rice,Jarrett...all of them are liberal fascists.

We need to purge our government of them.

This was a gift for Trump.

His comment that the Mexican-American judge was biased against him in the Trump University case is now very easy to accept since a Supreme Court justice is biased against Trump.

Trump is off the hook.

If Alito or Thomas had made a similar statement statement, there would be cries and squeals like never seen by Rats and the DBM. But a lib says something this outrageous and it’s ho hum, apologize and move on.

Ginsburg is the oldest of the justices at 83. I believe Kennedy is 80 and Breyer is 78.

Possibly 4 justices during the next term

Given her advanced age, I think it is a given the next President will replace Buzzi.

Which makes the “Never Trump” faction of the GOP look even more childish.

That’s some menagerie of freaks we have at the SCOTUS

Yes, Trump must win, and appoint justices who will follow the constitution rather that create it. Four would be a nice start, but we have a couple of real a$$haoles in Sotomeyer and Kagan.They must go.

Ginsburg should be impeached.

If there were any honor, loyalty or trust left in government, FBI Director Comey, Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg, Obama, and H.Clinton would resign from office and or announce they are leaving public life and will not seek any government office or accept any appointment.

Just for starters.

Too late—and she knows it.

This apology business is getting tiresome.

I think she did it purposly. She wants out. And now she has a ‘valid’ reason to do so. Don’t be surprised if you see others following here lead.....
red out.

So she regrets completely dropping the pretense that the supreme court is supposed to be a group of semi-divine arbitrators of justice and admitting that she is just a leftist partisan political hack. Sure, I guess she would regret that.
