AIKEN, S.C. — Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is "disgraceful" and a "disappointment" to conservatives, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said Saturday, while praising Associate Justice Clarence Thomas as his favorite member of the high court.

"Justice Roberts really let us down. What he did with Obamacare was disgraceful, and I think he did that because he wanted to be popular inside the Beltway," Trump told about 4,000 supporters.

Well, I guess that makes me a liberal too.

Cruz voted for Roberts.

[CatherineofAragon]

Afraid not.

Cruz is in it to win. You guys can ramp up the hysteria, the caps, and the exclamation points, but that’s the way it is.

[CatherineofAragon]

Yes, he did. And he said he was wrong.

Has Trump ever admitted a mistake?

[Steelfish]

So what does he say about Justice Kennedy who cast the deciding vote to uphold gay marriage? Wasn’t he too trying to curry favor inside the beltway media.

[1rudeboy]

Yeah, District of Columbia v. Heller was the final straw for me.

Love him or hate him, Trump is right again. Roberts is a disgrace and a turncoat. Americans who care about this country will never forgive him for what he has done to us.

There ya go.

[Psalm 144]

“President Reagan would never support a liberal.”

Like hell. He had one as Vice President. Globalism is liberalism.

I’m liking Trump more every day. I mean, one of my worries about him is that he’d turn out to be another Roberts. Then he comes out with this! Wow. TRUMP 2016!

[dragnet2]

Cruz voted for Roberts.

Hmmm. That's interesting.

[CatherineofAragon]

Well, Trump himself once said it was only fair to extend the Civil Rights Act to gays, so...

[Psalm 144]

“You seem angry, almost desperate.”

He sounds both to me.

It is a Santorum guy kind of thing.

That makes a lot of sense. Trump is an outsider, but also a businessman, a racket of his own, driven to make money, and nothing wrong with that. He is also very enigmatic. He pulls all the right punches, and has the dinosaur media in the palm of his hand which I love, and about time. I hope he drives them crazy and leads them into perdition. I simply cannot make a final acccessment on his candidacy. I will reserve judgment...

[dragnet2]

Did you know Cruz voted for Roberts? That had to bite.

[savedbygrace]

Not decades. 14 years. He changed from Democrat to Republican in 1962 and ran for President the first time in 1976.

[huldah1776]

Scalia and Thomas are the best.

[jy8z]

Cruz voted for Roberts.

Are you sure about that?

I heard his son talk on a yt video last night, not sure which son. He was amazingly well-spoken just spontaneously in answer to questions.

Ivanka is an amazing young woman, beauty, grace, well-spoken, too.

Larry Kudlow has just come on the radio and announced about his change of mind. I'll try to pay good attention as the show unfolds.

I have changed my mind. This is war. Seal the borders. Cease immigration. For how long? I don't know. Have to listen now. Terrorists already here. More coming. Am I wrong? Maybe but I don't think so.

Anyone feel free to repost as this is off topic for this thread.

I believe Kudlow is privy to some information the rest of us aren't privy to.

[huldah1776]

Trump probably got his information from the MSM. As President, if, we need to pray he chooses the right advisers. He’ll need conservatives. Will he appoint them? Will he keep his word?
