Ruth Bader Ginsburg: ‘I can’t imagine what the country would be’ under President Trump
Yahoo News ^ | July 11, 2016 | Colin Campbell

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recently offered a surprisingly blunt assessment of Donald Trump.

In an interview with the New York Times published Sunday, Ginsburg implied that the presumptive GOP nominee would do lasting harm to the Supreme Court if elected.

“I can’t imagine what this place would be — I can’t imagine what the country would be — with Donald Trump as our president,” she said. “For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be — I don’t even want to contemplate that.”

The left-leaning jurist also joked that if Trump were elected, it would be time for her “to move to New Zealand.”

This is the first time I can remember a Supreme Court Justice publicly attacking a presidential candidate.

It’s a whole new world with the Chicago Mob running DC.

Perhaps she is planning on stepping down before Baraq leaves office.

I can Justice Ginsburg. A country this is taken back and rebuilt.

Just goes to show what a limited mind she has.

I can’t imagine an uglier hate-filled beast than Ginsberg.

She can’t imagine what the country would be like under President Trump?

Better.

Why do they never say "Mexico?"

She is a deranged old woman. I do not think she can imagine much of anything anymore.

You raise an extremely interesting point, sir. Tell us more. A violation of separation of powers, perhaps?

Meanwhile that ancient potato chip in robes is ready to move to New Zealand. Please do, Madame Justice.

I’m trying to imagine a country without the last 50 years of legislating from the bench.

0b0z0 has appointed his last Supreme. The Senate has shut him down (as is customary for lame duck presidencies).

Can we impeach Supreme Court Justices?

She apparently has no trouble with The Clinton Mafia back in the white house.

Disgusting. There are no laws anymore, just politics. There is a coup in the works from the inside.

The corrupt garbage finally reveals herself as she commits the ultimate sin of an American judge: lack of impartiality.

Time to resign, usurper, or be impeached for your many crimes on the bench.

The RNC, Conservatives, Trump and Republican lawmakers should pounce on this! Not only is this highly inappropriate, but this shows complete bias and intolerance by a Supreme Court Jurist that her Constitutional views and beliefs are the only ones acceptable..

Ruth, we couldn't imagine the country under 0, either.

You adjust. You are both depressed and mad. You can't believe that the majority of people in this country could have done something so incredibly stupid.

Some, perhaps yourself, get so frustrated they go crazy or have a heart attack.

Consider this.
