President Trump attacked Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg after Sotomayor criticized the court’s conservative majority for granting a number of his administration's emergency stay requests
President Donald Trump on Tuesday slammed Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, saying both should recuse themselves from cases involving him or his administration.
His comments at a press conference in India — and previous tweets to the same effect — came after Sotomayor criticized the court’s conservative majority for granting a number of the administration’s emergency stay requests.“Perhaps most troublingly, the Court’s recent behavior on stay applications has benefited one litigant over all others,” Sotomayordissenting from the court’s decision to lift an injunction on the administration’s immigrant “public charge” rule.
Riffing off Laura Ingraham’s commentary on her Fox News show, Trump used Sotomayor’s dissent as a jumping-off point to hit the pair of liberal justices. “She’s trying to shame people with perhaps a different view into voting her way, and that’s so inappropriate,” Trump said of Sotomayor to reporters.
