I know a few people like you, but his comments on Trump's tweet have exposed what side he's on.

Scalia:

Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.
and again Scalia:
what really astounds is the hubris reflected in today’s judicial Putsch
and again Scalia:
The opinion is couched in a style that is as pretentious as its content is egotistic.
and again Scalia:
Hubris is sometimes defined as o’erweening pride; and pride, we know, goeth before a fall. The Judiciary is the “least dangerous” of the federal branches because it has “neither Force nor Will, but merely judgment; and must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm” and the States, “even for the efficacy of its judgments.” With each decision of ours that takes from the People a question properly left to them—with each decision that is unabashedly based not on law, but on the “reasoned judgment” of a bare majority of this Court—we move one step closer to being reminded of our impotence.
But at the slightest criticism by the President of the United States, this guy feels "disheartened".

I don’t trust him. That being said, CNN is the “source”? It’s probably completely taken out of context. He could have been talking about Trump, the judges or the situation. They don’t actually quote him but for those two words. It’s like Trump/NYTimes stories immediately following the election. We were led to believe that Trump suddenly became a globalist who was starting to get on board the Climate crap and was considering keeping Obamacare. A lot of it is tone and context and if that isn’t properly reflected you can make up a whole lot of fake news. I’ll listen to his answers live without the spin and then i’ll decide but his church is shady. Bad start.
