Do you consider the Supreme Court legitimate? [View all]

An argument could be made that they are not.

Mitch McConnell and the Republicans held up Obama's pick for the Court and instead, put a Federalist Society pick in his place. Merrick Garland was going to be the next Justice of the Supreme Court. McConnell argued that we were too close to the next election to have a pick from Obama.

Then when Anthony Kennedy resigned, the Republicans got another pick.

When Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, we were already into the election season, but that did not seem to matter to McConnell. He didn't mind being called a lying hypocrite.

On top of it all, we had the Republican picks lie about over-turning Roe under the guise of "precedent". It was dishonest all the way around.

So, I think it could be argued that they are not a legitimate Court.
