Justice Ginsburg Wears 'Dissent' Collar Following Contentious Election

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg appeared to be wearing her dissent "jabot" on Wednesday —one day after an incredibly divisive and contentious presidential campaign ended in the election of Donald Trump.

Ginsburg wore the embellished collar ruffle meant to show disagreement and stray from the majority opinion on decisions before the high court. But there were no court decisions slated to go out on Wednesday.

The Supreme Court did not return a request from NBC News for comment. Ginsburg has previously been frank on what she thinks of Trump.

"I can't imagine what this place would be — I can't imagine what the country would be — with Donald Trump as our president…For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be — I don't even want to contemplate that," she told the New York Times in July.

Ruth... Thanks for hanging in there. You could've retired and allowed Obama to appoint your successor, but instead you were greedy (like most libtards) and now the Donald will replace you.... The Supreme Court will remain conservative for another generation.

Appointing these lifetime justices is probably the most important and longest lasting legacy of any President.

She was a surprising good friend of and to Scalia.

I prefer to think this might have been a pact of some sort, or at least a conversation the two had.

Trump is the rebel punk-rocker in the political world. Can’t hardly wait.

Oh, how special (and typical of a collectivist twit) to have special garb to wear in protest when you LOSE. [eyeroll]

She is going to have to die. She will not retire and she can’t be made to retire.

She could easily live for two more decades.

It is likely she will live for 8 years or more.
She seems quite healthy.

Additionally, it is now time for her to stroke the ass out and expire naturally. Go into the light, girl. You can do it! It don’t matter that you waited for nothing. Just go on and do it! You’re tired and deserve an eternal rest! Bless your heart.

How unethical, childish and reprehensible......and this woman is supposed to uphold the Constitution when legal cases are brought before the Court. e.g. the right to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Outrageous!!!!!!

Aw I don’t believe that for a minute. Apparently you missed all her medical events a while back.

I hope so. She has a history of colon cancer.
