https://www.foxnews.com/politics/chief-j...rsuch-dangerous

I find these comments very “Trump Like” but I am still surprised this wasn’t posted.

The comments by Roberts are accurate and telling.

They are VERY trump like,,, Which begs the question, why didn't Roberts respond to Trump in the same fashion..

In this very VERY specific situation, Trump's comments weren't as bad as Schumer's. That right there should tell you all you need to know.

I do find it hilarious that Trump was able to conjure up so much outrage over another person's remarks. He's the last person to criticize anyone for inappropriate/dangerous remarks.

trump only sees himself as an innocent victim. He’s clueless as to his own rhetoric. Well. He’s generally just clueless.

Schumer's a moron for his hyperbolic threats to two sitting SC Justices.

Foolish Bias.

Trump made a legal comment on Justices showing bias and needing to recuse themselves.

Schumer threatened Justices.

Schurmer called abortion “healthcare”. Only a minute percentage of abortions have anything to do with health issues. Calling abortion Healthcare is a misnomer

Pregnancy is not a disease or an injury.

Oh BS.... Trumps remarks are most always lies... He does it to rile up his base....

Schumer should be arrested for Terroristic threats .. end of story.
The SC justices are APPOINTED for life and are not elected so we know he wasn't talking about their political future.... watta a scumbag.

JC.

Roberts has spoken up when Trump made comments about an “Obama judge”. IMO Schumer was very wrong in his comments and Roberts had every right to comment.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., called out Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on the Senate floor Thursday morning for his controversial warning a day earlier that Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh would "pay the price" for decisions in abortion cases.

“There is nothing to call this except a threat,” McConnell said.

"But if he cannot even admit to saying what he said, we certainly cannot know what he meant," McConnell said. "At the very best his comments were astonishingly reckless and extremely irresponsible.”

----------------------------------------------------------

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, called on Schumer to apologize.

"At best, it was an injection of partisan politics into the process that should be immune to these justices," Grassley said. "At worst it was a threat targeting two sitting members of the Supreme Court."

--------------------------------------------------------

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., has indicated that he plans to introduce a resolution to censure the minority leader.

"I would call on Schumer to apologize, but we all know he has no shame," Hawley wrote Wednesday. "So tomorrow I will introduce a motion to censure Schumer for his pathetic attempt at intimidation of #SupremeCourt."

------------------------------------------------------------

Liberal Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe took the conservative Roberts' side, calling Schumer's words "inexcusable." He said Roberts was correct to say something and hoped that Schumer would apologize.

------------------------------------------------------------

The American Bar Association said they were "deeply troubled" by Schumer's remarks.

"Whatever one thinks about the merits of an issue before a court, there is no place for threats -- whether real or allegorical," the ABA said in a statement. "Personal attacks on judges by any elected officials, including the President, are simply inappropriate. Such comments challenge the reputation of the third, co-equal branch of our government; the independence of the judiciary; and the personal safety of judicial officers. They are never acceptable."

SHAME!!!

Trump pretty much said any Justice who doesn't agree with him shouldn't count. That's not a legal argument.



What he said was wrong and he never should have said it.

He already apologized.....

Schumer apologizes for Supreme Court comments

https://news.yahoo.com/video/schumer-apologizes-supreme-court-comments-163515328.html

"I shouldn't have used the words I used" is an apology?

"I'm from Brooklyn. We speak in strong language," is an apology?

Schumer spokesman Justin Goodman previously insisted that Schumer was addressing Republican lawmakers when he said a "price" would be paid -- even though Schumer had explicitly named Kavanaugh and Gorsuch.

McConnell did not buy that, saying that Schumer was trying to "gaslight the entire country" by claiming he was not addressing the justices.

That's closer to an apology you'll hear from your orange God for any of the hateful things he has said.

Talk about Gaslighting.

Talk about having double standards.

The true nature of intolerant leftist people always comes out, doesn't it.

I think abortion is disgusting. It's a sickening part of the Democratic platform, and one of the reasons why I don't vote Democrat.

It was one of the things I was referring to when I made that statement about the Democratic platform that got people all up in arms.

Yes, we know Moscow Mitch is an intolerant P.O.S that personifies what is so utterly wrong with the political system in the USA- but he's not Leftist.

I was speaking of "Slaughterhouse Schumer" and his intolerance of those who value the lives of the unborn. The same guy that thinks abortion is healthcare. Very, very, very few abortions have anything to do with health.

Schumer didn't go far enough in my opinion. He should have just come out and said none of the BS is going to end or get better until we drag these dregs from their beds and run them out on a rail.

Meh - I didn't like what Shumur said. But the faux outrage by those Republicans and the people on this board is equally shameful. Just my 2 cents but I think saying a judge isn't impartial based on his skin color is worse as are literally hundreds of things Trump as the leader of the free world has said.... there was no accountability by then and there won't be the next time he opens his mouth and says something you'd admonish a child for saying.

Trump: Schumer 'would be in jail' if he was a Republican for remarks toward Gorsuch, Kavanaugh

Trump said it so you parrot it - you may even believe it. You probably do believe it even though it's painfully obviously another complete load of B.S from the POTUS.

Here! Here! We need to start holding people accountable.

What do you know? You're just a socialist.

Careful what you wish for, you and others on here put Trump in the Oval. He's a traitor, thief, and conman and y'all handed him the country.

Id rather lick doorknobs in CHINA before I would vote for a Democrat....LOL

Just because you enjoy licking doorknobs? Or because you always wanted to go to China?

I lived in CLE for 15 years and have always disputed the negative views that are prevalent among many people of the city. I was born and raised in the Deep South, but I fell in love with Cleveland, the people, and the major sports teams there...I’m a die hard Cleveland sports fan. Sadly, This board continues to erode those feelings ever so slowly....I’m sure I will get slammed for my honesty

<cheese to go with your> whine.

Isn't that what Trump, and Biden already do.

Yes, tne fact that they are appointed for life and thus it wasn't a threat about their political future is a good point

Brilliant come back ... Not. And it got a like Brilliant.

I see the fake outrage and contrived controversy continues

Yep. If we could only bottle all this GOPer whine, we could slap a Trump label on it and sell it back to them with Fox News infomercials. It would be a good way to fund our socialist agenda.

He was clearly adressing the repub lawmakers ... clearly ... Senator Gorsuch and congressman Kavanaugh .... ...

Bro ... Pit thinks saying two judges should recuse themselves from cases involving that person = to saying that two judges will “pay the price” and “won’t know what hit them” for a decision he ASSumes they will make ... pretty much the same thing in TDS world ....

0 + 0 = 0 once again eludes him ... extremely sad ...

I won't argue that Schumer was totally off base with his comments... Actually, he's even admitted he went to far..

But that rebuke from Roberts was childs play and virtually meaningless...
