RBG Says Trump Should Recuse Himself from All Decisions Involving the Future of the Country

By Andy Borowitz

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Asserting that his personal interests put him in direct conflict with the interests of the United States of America, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has demanded that Donald Trump recuse himself from all decisions involving the future of the U.S.

Speaking from her office at the Supreme Court, Ginsburg said that Trump’s oft-stated allegiance to himself makes it impossible for him to render unbiased decisions on issues affecting people other than himself.

we're gambling that America will want to return to some genteel, dignified approach to government where we set aside differences to strive for the common good

i don't think this will work. we live in a society where people are willing to risk their very lives proving that the world is flat. we have sincere debates about whether professional wrestling is "real" and NORAD tracks Santa Claus on national TV. this is not a nation well-suited to dignity.

eventually, someone has to wallow in the mud with the tangeranus or his descendants (genetic and ideological) and WIN.
