Ginsburg comments regarding a Trump presidency and High Court meanderings

[Seattle Husker]

To be fair, have we ever seen a POTUS candidate as bombastic as Trump?

 

[nashhorn]

Yes

Looks like RBG has now admitted her remarks were inappropriate.

So The NY Times and now RBG herself are to the right of SH. Huh.

Good for her. The "mea culpa" was certainly warranted. I'm sure this will transition to whether RGB should apologize to Trump. She didn't but rather admitted she should have kept her views private.

 

[Seattle Husker]

Yes

Who?

 

[nashhorn]

For bombastic in the pretentious, high minded definition look no farther than Obama. The most pretentious politician I know. Telling McClain "remember the election is over and I (or we) won" ranks as one of the most self centered pretentious comments I have ever heard from a professional to a colleague.

But there were certainly others who could be labeled bombastic. Now I'll admit to an unique offensiveness from Mr Trump that runs the gamut in ummmm..... shall we say guttural expressiveness.

I dislike plenty about Obama but he's nowhere even near Trump's league as a pompous windbag.

 

[iatrogenic]

Less pompous, more windbag.

How do you do it? You keep at it until you find the exact right factoid.
Even you have to admit until you found this there had been no mention of any Supreme speaking out about a Candidate.
but here it is from your linkP
" In 1800, just a decade after the court was founded, so many of its justices were out campaigning for John Adams that the opening of the court term had to be delayed."


No one else did for 216 years until RBG and now she is apologizing. times do change

Actually, I fell *** backwards into this. It showed up in my Facebook news feed.
