A solid majority of Americans say Supreme Court justices are more likely to be guided by their own ideology rather than serving as neutral arbiters of government authority, a new poll finds, as the high court is poised to rule on major cases involving former President Donald Trump and other divisive issues.
The survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 7 in 10 Americans think the high court’s justices are more influenced by ideology, while only about 3 in 10 U.S. adults think the justices are more likely to provide an independent check on other branches of government by being fair and impartial.
The poll reflects the continued erosion of confidence in the Supreme Court, which enjoyed broader trust as recently as a decade ago. It underscores the challenge faced by the nine justices — six appointed by Republican presidents and three by Democrats — of being seen as something other than just another element of Washington’s hyper-partisanship.
9/9 supreme court justices think you are a worthless little bitch and you can’t do shit to stop them.
That’s not at all what they’re saying, IHeartCheese is saying you, the citizen, don’t have power over the SCOTUS.
But you’d be right as in both sides are ideological, how else do you think they decide which interpretation to use if not by ideology?
Or are you one of those libs who doesn’t think they have ideology?
This comment really feels like “I’m making all my decisions based on ideology therefore everyone does”
Nobody is trying to say both sides are the same. I am saying the supreme court is not working for us and they know they can get away with it.
Saying 9/9 justices don’t give a shit is disingenuous to say the least. In case you forgot 6 >3, here’s a refresher course on something you should have learned in 1st grade math.
