From The Hill, “Confidence in the Supreme Court has reached its lowest level in 50 years, according to a long-running survey. Just 17 percent said they had a great deal of confidence in the high court in 2022, down from 26 percent the year before, according to the General Social Survey, run by NORC at the University of Chicago. … The survey comes in the wake of the Supreme Court’s historic decision to overturn Roe v. Wade last June, which triggered over a dozen abortion bans at the state level. More recently, the high court has faced calls for new ethics rules following ProPublica’s reporting on Justice Clarence Thomas’s close relationship with GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. Crow reportedly paid for several luxury vacations with Thomas, which the justice did not disclose.”
This is what Americans wanted, so now they have it! Full-f***ing-stop! I’m sorry, but no one can convince me otherwise. This is, in part, why Americans voted for traitor trump. How many times did he say during the 2016 presidential campaign that he would only nominate anti-Roe justices? How many f***ing times? And he did exactly that! But do you really think uber-conservatives will only stop with abortion rights? Of course, not! People should have known this when they voted for RepubliKKKlans, and if they were too stupid to envision the worst, then that’s on them. And a big f***ing oh well! Morons of America are stuck with this SCOTUS for decades to come; imagine all the damage they will do to our democracy in the meantime. A theocracy is coming, and this is what people voted for — like it or not.
And don’t be so naive to think these polling numbers will deter the six theocratic justices. They don’t care. Witness the latest set of ethics scandals by Thomas. What has been the reaction of the justices? Nothing. Roberts has essentially told Americans to f*** off; there is nothing to see here. “Trust us! We’re not corrupt!” (As they take our rights away and give more power to RepubliKKKlans.) They have explicitly said that they don’t consider poll numbers in their judgments; it’s purely about the law, aka how to use the law to roll back our rights. This is their singular mission. But America is just too f***ing stupid to care, nor can they really do anything at this point. Americans f***ed up bigly! RepubliKKKlans and Democrats are equally to blame. RepubliKKKlans have been telegraphing a theocratic takeover of SCOTUS for decades, and Democrats never took RepubliKKKlans’ efforts seriously. Welcome to stupid America! Americans get precisely the government (and SCOTUS) they deserve and desire. Oh, well! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
