Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a noted critic of President Trump, suggested that she doesn't believe the country is in good hands but said she is hopeful about the future.
“We're not experiencing the best of times,” Ginsburg said Thursday on BBC's “Newsnight,” though she did not comment directly about the president.
But, the 83-year-old jurist said the public's resistance to the new administration — on full display at last month's Women's March protests — has given her “reason to hope that we will see a better day.”
“A great man once said that the true symbol of the United States is not the bald eagle; it is the pendulum, and when the pendulum swings too far in one direction, it will go back,” she told BBC.
“Some terrible things have happened in the United States, but one can only hope that we learn from those bad things,” she added, citing the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II as an example.

Tick! Tick! Tick! Tick!
Ghastly Ruthie, along with those two lesbians and that phony Catholic and the idiot Chief Justice are anathema to proper interpretation of the Constitution.
Sometimes Ruthie consults Sharia Law which is so incongruous for someone who calls herself a Jew as to defy any logic. She, along with several others, are true American traitors.
Ruthie at prayer.
Same here. I don’t want to die during the next eight years. The transformation that Trump will wrought will be the greatest thing we’ve observed in our lifetimes.
Right, Ruthie!
We’ve suffered under four years of Carter, eight years of the damned Clintons and eight agonizing years under a phony halfrican-non American fruitcake.
That’s twenty years out of the life of America that could have been spent with Conservative administrations reaching goals unheard of. Instead we are so deep in debt and wallowing in prevision as to make true Jewish and Christians puke.
Her plans are to leave the country and take up residence in New Zealand where she and her hubby maintain a home.
Thanks to you and your Fellow Travelers.
Ruth, Go into the light...
