The approval rating of the nation’s highest court stands at 40 per cent, according to a new poll
The Supreme Court’s approval rating has plunged to one of its lowest levels yet ahead of a ruling on Donald Trump’s eligibility to run for president.
The approval rating of the nation’s highest court stands at 40 per cent, according to the latest poll released by Marquette Law School on Wednesday.
The latest numbers rival only those of July 2022, when only 38 per cent of US adults said they approved of the Supreme Court and 61 per cent disapproved – just after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade.
When five out of nine have been appointed by presidents who lost the popular vote, that’s what you’ll get.
Of course, we have no way of removing any of them, so it’s not like they have to care.
There are ways. Impeachment being the constitutionally sanctioned way.

Just appoint 10 additional supreme court judges. Then pass federal law to limit adding more supreme court judges. Pass federal laws to fix all of the shit that has been happening, including voting reform and gerrymandering with a better voting system A second reconstruction era.
It would be easy to fix, all the democrats need is a solid majority which they would get on election reform or abortion alone.
they should have. They could have. People said this… like when RvW was on the chopping block.
But no. “We can’t do that because then they’d do it!”
There’s ways. They’re only lifetime appointments, after all.
To be fair, Bush had won the popular vote by the time he nominated any justices.
Yes, but he wouldn’t have even been president in the first place if it wasn’t for the Supreme Court, and specifically Clarence Thomas.
He won the popular vote by taking the country into an unjustified war because he has daddy issues.
