when i heard that ruth bader ginsburg went off on trump calling him a fakeer and says trump just says what comes into his head? my thought, oops. justice ginsburg might want to check the mirror because that's just exactly what she did. says whatever comes into her mind. we all know she hates trump, hates him big time. even threatening to move to new zealand if elected. she has a first amendment right to sling insults as trump does. she might want to check in the mirror on that one. if trump does become president she better recuse herself on all cases involving the white house. no one not even the "new york times" editorial page could ever think she could be fair. now i wonder what other biases are consuming her. and, by the way, she also took a slap at the press for being too gentle on trump about not disclosing his tax returns. meanwhile, she has no criticism for the press for being too gentle on secretary clinton for not disclosing transcripts of her speeches to goldman sachs. now, what's with that? double standard? bias, and that's my off-the-record comment tonight. okay. i know wh

ruth bader ginsburg will have to recuse herself.trump will talk about that tonight. >> thanks for putting this out there, with the speculation that it will be that close of an election. i don't think it will be that close and she will have not to recuse herself. i think what's only surprising here is the candor, but let's be clear, i think we've learned that the justice's political leanings for a long time. >> you're not surprised to hear this from her? >> i don't think anyone is surprised and if you hear a lot of the dissenting opinions on the conservative and liberal size you will hear a lot more on the political leanings. citizens united was a very political, in my mind -- >> but you're talking about political leanings. this was personal. >> i think her comments were certainly careless, but on one hand refreshing because all of these judges' opinions are incredibly political. they deal with political decisions all of the time and let's drop the pretense of the robe and get pquit pretending that these uj jes aren't political and h

until ruth bader ginsburg forced me to think about it this week. if the integrity of the supreme court is based on the notion that supreme court justices do not have a preference about who wins a presidential election, then the integrity is based on pure fantasy. and everybody knows that. and judicial impartiality does not require a justice to hold no personal opinions. it does not require a justice to be able to -- it requires a justice simply to be able to look at the law and make a ruling despite the justice's own personal opinion. now, no one has ever suggested that the catholics on the supreme court should recuse themselves on cases involving abortion, and none of them ever have. and catholics on the supreme court have very consistently ruled against abortion rights, in agreement with their church. and no editorial board has accused them of doing that because their religion has undermined the integrity of the supreme court, has destroyed the justices' ability to rule on the law and the constitution. mario cuomo, catholic governor of new york a
