"In interviews with the Associated Press and the New York Times she remarked, “I can’t imagine what the country would be with Donald Trump as our president.* For the country, it could be four years.* For the court, it could be –I don’t even want to contemplate that.”* Then she added that her husband would have declared, “Now it’s time for us to move to New Zealand.”*

In a CNN interview, she said Trump, “He is a faker.* He has no consistency about him.* He says whatever comes into his head at the moment.* He really has an ego.* How has he gotten away with not turning over his tax returns?”"

She's clearly biased.

By every judicial standard she should, but we all know she won't.

Why? Because you don't like her decisions?

Yes. She's senile as well as making judgements based on liberal dogma.
Off with her head!

Why? Are they related? Did she work for him? Do they have business dealings?

Same principle as Trump and the travel ban. Trump made comments about Muslims, she's made comments about Trump

No, because judges are supposed to, and actually required to, remain aloof from partisan politics. Going further, commenting publicly on cases before, or likely to come before, the Court usually then mandates a recusal.

And you know damned well had an Alito made a comment such as Ginsburg did you guys would be demanding his impeachment.

Because judges are supposed to be about justice, not social justice or street justice but justice according to the letters of law.

The law is free from passion!

She already commented on this issue and biased herself. If she has any respect for her position on the Court, she would recuse herself.

Any judge appointed by Trump should be recused because we can't be sure their decision isn't payback for the nomination.
