The U.S. Supreme Court justices are the last resort in resolution of many cases.
And, the U.S. Supreme Court saddled this country with president George W. Bush when there was every reason to believe that it was Al Gore who won the presidential elections, and when the case was rife with conflicts of interest of not just one, but several justices of the U.S. Supreme Court to decide the case - in other words, there is a clear implication that the Gore v Bush case was fixed.
Now we have yet another presidential election where a Gore v Bush scenario is likely, and passions and stakes are even higher than in Gore v Bush.
In Gore v Bush, at the very least, Bush was a dyed-in-the-wool Republican.
In Trump v Clinton case, Trump is not acknowledged as a true Republican by many in the Republican party, and both Trump and Clinton have legal troubles during their campaigns - where Trump gets a beating in federal court by a clearly biased judge, and Clinton gets a pardon from criminal prosecution from her own private attorney Loretta Lynch, after a private meeting with Bill Clinton, through a highly irregular FBI investigation where no transcripts are made, no records are kept, Director of the FBI did not conduct her interview, did not speak to those who did, and did not turn the case into the grand jury before claiming that there is nothing to prosecute.
So, the government is clearly slanted towards Hillary Clinton, that is clear.
Yet, when a U.S. Supreme Court justice Ruth Ginsurg joins the fray and starts making comments that she needs to disappear to New Zealand if Trump is elected, that Trump is a fake, and an inconsistent and implicitly stupid blabber-er - you can have a sneak preview that, if these presidential elections end up in a tie, a case-fixing will happen again, and Ruth Ginsburg already announced how she will judge the case. She already pre-judged it.
Ruth Ginsurg MUST know that the case may end up like Gore v Bush.
If that happens, now that she made her position clear as to one of potential future litigants, what will she do? Disqualify herself? Or, knowing that there is no judicial power in the United States higher than her court, remain and impose her personal prejudices as to the candidates upon the country?
While there is no prohibitions on public statements for judges and justices of any level, including the U.S. Supreme Court, judges are bound not to engage in conduct that may result in a conflict of interest, and Ruth Ginsburg is engaging in such a conduct, knowing that current presidential elections may end up in a tie and a court case in front of her.
Ruth Ginsburg's inappropriate statements about Trump are not her only inappropriate comments about cases she may be called to decide in the future.
Ruth Ginsburg also recently disclosed her "dream" to overturn "Citizens United".
When a judge has a strong feeling about a case that did not come in front of her yet for reversal, she just announced that she will grab the opportunity to pre-judge that case based on her dream.
Isn't it time to retire for Judge Ginsburg? Not waiting for impeachment proceedings?
