“The president is not a lawyer. He’s not law-trained.'
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg shared some of her sprawling knowledge on the judicial system, women’s rights and President Trump on Monday night, when she was honored with the Berggruen Prize — an award typically reserved for philosophers.
When asked what she thinks about Americans retreating to a more conservative state, especially in terms of abortion laws, Ginsburg noted that poor women are the only people being affected by lack of access to abortion. “The pedestal on which women were thought to stand more often was a cage [back then],” she said. “In the space of a decade, almost every explicit gender-based classification was gone. And those laws are not going to come back, ever.”
“She’s taught me that if you stand up for women or any underserved or marginalized group, it’s the right thing to do. And she cared about gender equality long before those two words were put together,” Couric said. “She’s so admirable, I want to wrap her in bubble wrap and give her my kidney. Back to you, Olivia.”
