Even the New York Times Condemns Ruth "Buzzi" Ginsburg
RUSH: Ruth Bader Ginsburg, by the way, even the New York Times raked her over the coals for what she has done, what she has said about Trump. But the question is: Is anything gonna happen to her? She has violated -- blatantly violated -- what is known as Canon 5 of the official judge handbook. My words. Canon 5 essentially says: You do not comment on anything that could end up coming before you.
You don't comment on current political issues or events because you are compromising your own ability to be a judge. The things that she's saying about Trump and moving to New Zealand? I mean, what if a contested election causes another recount that ends up before the Supreme Court? Or what if Trump wins and wants to come along and do away with Obamacare? She's forever tainted here.
She cannot render a decision anymore that is not going to be considered political and suspicious, precedent or otherwise. It isn't gonna appear to be objective. I think now that she's done this, every judicial nominee from this day forward needs to be asked about it. "Do you agree with Ruth Bader Ginsburg?" and just throw back at this nominee everything she has said. "What do you think about cases? We all know you think about cases. We all know that you judges have opinions. Well, she's told us what hers is. What are yours?" Force it out of 'em from now on. I think it's an opportunity.
