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."

Guns dry never belonged on the court imho. Her understanding of America and our constitution is weak at best , and her loyalty to upholding and defending our constitutional system of law is, well, lacking. Now that she’s really jumped the shark or gone completely nuts, she should definitely get out ASAP.

She may mean well ( unlike Obama or Hillary) but Ginsburg needs to leave the court. She appears incapable of applying the constitution in a reasonable or fair manner — and now that she’s gone political she’s no longer fit to remain on the bench.

"Trump should charter her a jet so her sorry arse and all of her belongings can be moved to New Zealand where she wants to go after Trump is elected. Bye bye Ruth."

Ginsberg lives in France. She’s on the first private jet making smoke the instant session comes to a close. She has for years now.

The Oath seems today to be merely a Ceremony for show.
ZERO screwed is first one up so bad they had to have a second “Private” Oath ... (he probably wanted a Koran)
A real President should be able to re-instate it’s solemnity.

It's amazing to ponder a Justice dislikes the US Constitution and is one personal political loss away from leaving the country. What a disgrace.

The NY Times called her out in an editorial and said what she did was inappropriate.
Now that’s a surprise in itself!
