Showing Original Post only (View all)Pew Poll shows conservatives think the Supreme Court is actually liberal. [View all]

There continue to be wide partisan and ideological differences in opinions about the Supreme Courts ideological leanings. A majority of liberal Democrats (56%) say the court is conservative; just 12% of conservative Republicans say the same. Nearly half of conservative Republicans (48%) see the court as liberal, compared with 8% of liberal Democrats. About four-in-ten conservative Republicans (38%) and 31% of liberal Democrats say the court is middle of the road.

At least the poll showed that the majority of liberal Democrats correctly understand the true nature of the Court.

People like that are going to think SCOTUS is "liberal" until every justice is a GOP appointee.

So YOU get to determine the true nature of the court and anyone that doesn't agree with you is wrong
