And yet, Trump replaced one conservative on the bench with another conservative. Nothing changed. But the American people think it’s too conservative now?
This has got to be more propaganda from the MSM. Via Gallup:
For the first time in nearly a decade, more Americans say the Supreme Court is too conservative (30%) than too liberal (23%). These views are reversed from last year, when 37% said the court was too liberal and 20% too conservative. Overall, the most popular view is that the Supreme Court’s ideology is “about right” (43%).
These data are from Gallup’s annual Governance Poll, conducted Sept. 6-10. The shift toward the court being viewed as “too conservative” comes as Republicans control the White House, both houses of Congress and have ideological allies in five of the nine Supreme Court justices.
While more Americans now say the court is too conservative than too liberal, the seven-percentage-point gap is smaller than the 17-point gaps in 2015 and 2016 when many more thought the court was too liberal than too conservative. The relatively strong perception in those two years that the court was too liberal likely stemmed from the court upholding the constitutionality of same-sex marriage and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in June 2015.
