Trump rips own Supreme Court picks after justices block mail-in ballot rules: ‘These are not the people I interviewed’
NY post ^ | Sep. 15, 2026 | Steven Nelson

WASHINGTON — President Trump railed Tuesday against his three nominees to the Supreme Court after each of them voted to block new rules governing mail-in ballots from taking effect ahead of the November midterms.

“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court, they are merely a shell of their original selves,” Trump wrote about Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.

“This Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the Radical Left into making decisions that have set America back at least a hundred years.”

Trump went on to claim that “certain Justices are petrified of these crazed and depraved Democrats, and are totally unable to show the courage necessary to save our America.”

Mr. Trump has gone through a ton of bad appointments between the different cabinet positions in his two administrations. Were all of them not the people he interviewed? Maybe the problem is elsewhere?

He's not wrong.

The only way election fraud will ever end is when conservatives become more effective at it than the Left.

Not that I would encourage that, but cui bono applies, which is why the Left fights tooth and nail to keep the fraud train rolling at full speed.

There’s a case to be made for having the same number of USSC justices as there are federal appellate court districts.

That would take the USSC from 9 to 13.

I think this kind of rant is less about accomplishing anything and more about finding someone to blame when Trump and the GOP get their asses kicked on Election Day.

One thing is clear; the DeepState is terrified of an honest count.

Repukes wouldn’t even know what that means. They’d have a bunch of “strict constructionist” whatever the heck that means. When Dems choose Justices they’d have a bunch of hard left activist; the same game would not work from the right.

IOW, these Justice candidates lied and said what they knew the president needed to hear. Just to get nominated and confirmed. Then they go their quasi-liberal way. spit

The blame is easy. The United States Congress. Compltely abdicated their responsibilities on every subject. They don’t pass budgets; They don’t want to fund the war but they’ll fund it anyways. They don’t want Tranny surgeries but they’ll fund it anyways. A judge spits on the law and they’re afraid to even have a hearing about it let alone considering impeachment. If the Congress left the country for 3 years would anything actually be any different? Just need AI to renew the next CR. Nancy Pelosi hasn’t been speaker for about 2 years and we’re still working on her priorities and budget. How you blame the President for that I have no idea. If it were up to Trump there would be some radical changes in Congress. How do I know; look how he runs his Presidency. You may think he’s great or you may think he sucks but you can never accuse him or not trying to do things. Lazy is simply not a word you can use for Trump. The Repukes couldn’t pass the SAVE America Act. A simple thing that says you have to be a legal citizen to vote. Yea, it’s 100% the fault of the United States Senate. It will not get any better when the Rats take power but swapping between these joke parties will solve nothing.

The SCOTUS ruling was the correct one according to the current law. The court has given Trump more wins than not.

“This Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the Radical Left into making decisions that have set America back at least a hundred years.”

Trump really needs to learn when to just shut his mouth. The SCOTUS rulings have largely been in his favor. To accuse them of being bullied by the Radical Left is just nonsense. Consider that the Radical Left claims the court is a tool of the Radical Right. IMHO the very fact that the court has managed to tick off both sides is a sure sign they are doing their job.

“ The Repukes couldn’t pass the SAVE America Act”

Not couldn’t, but wouldn’t. Republicans could have ended the filibuster which the Democrats will do on day one if they take over the Senate. Republicans could’ve at least forced a talking filibuster, which would’ve been very interesting for the country to watch. When the Democrats got tired of talking there would’ve been a vote requiring only 61 to pass Not one senator stood up for Trump to have a recess appointment so even the ones who seem pretty good like Johnson are against us

You are a downside to Alberta seceding and joining the US.
