Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that if President Donald Trump continued to make statements about impeaching judges, he could “tick off” the Supreme Court and lose cases.

Christie said, “Look, it is the MO of this first quarter of the Trump administration, which is we are going to try to use the power of the presidency in every way we can, and in this instance to intimidate people from availing themselves of the rights they have as American citizens to access the court system if they think the government has done something wrong. Any suit that’s filed against Trump’s administration, Donald Trump will, by definition, believe is frivolous and vexatious. What he’s saying to them is, punish anybody who sues us. Again, if people stand up and say, I don’t care, I don’t think that this is going to be a huge problem, but if they continue to act like Paul Weiss did and cave and be intimidated, well then we’re going to have a much different legal system in this country.”

it’s not polite to talk with your mouth full

[A_perfect_lady]

So the Supreme Court’s rulings are dependent upon their hurt feelings? Good to know.

[RAT_Poison]

Those “impartial” judges at work, right?

Can Chris Christie keep quiet for even one second? Why doesn't Christie just join the Democrat Party already. He's on CNN all the time.

So lets tip toe around these judges? what’s the difference? The American people are pissed to know end and we are at the point and in position to get what we voted for and we better, period!

[griswold3]

So much for the Constitution Prepare accordingly

[gw-ington]

That has to be AI

I’m scared

Given Roberts' record and Bryant's incomprehensible antipathy for Trump, you should be.

[Jim W N]

Spoken by someone under the Rule of Man and his whims and changeable craftiness.

However, America and its gov't including SCOTUS is under the Rule of Law of the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land (US Const., Art. VI, Cl. 2).

[CodeToad]

Christie is such a coward. Lots of mouth but little action.

[McGavin999]

If SCOTUS rules based on whether they are ticked off at someone they are basically worthless. Their job is to interpret the constitution not make social decisions.

[Manic_Episode]

So rule of law has zero to do with rule of law but vindictive ego and ideology and fat boy approves. Got it.

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

BS - Trump is asking SCOTUS to their job and save our representative government

[gibsonguy]

5 of the 9 SC Justices hate Trump already. That is what awaits Trump at the end of the appeal road. He better have a plan B because the SC is not going to save us from these hack Judges.

I think CC is right, Roberts will rule against Trump if he hurts his feelings, the rule of law is old irrelevant to Roberts
