Trump lashes out at Supreme Court justices, saying his appointees ‘are not the people I interviewed’
President Donald Trump upbraided Supreme Court justices as “shells” beholden to “crazed” liberal interests in a lengthy online screed a day after the court blocked his plan to execute dramatic changes to mail-in voting ahead of the midterms.
“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court, they are merely a shell of their original selves,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday.
None of the justices Trump appointed to the court during his first term — Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch or Amy Coney Barrett — noted disagreement with the majority opinion blocking the mail-voting changes.
Two justices, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, said they would have allowed the rules to go into place.

To his benefit, he does at least recognize they are the same human beings.

But you all agreed to be my sleeper agents! Samuel and Clarence should be hanged for treason. Never forget that treason was originally interpreted as loyalty to a king figure, these “originalists” if they had a crumb of integrity (they don’t) would rule for themselves to be put to death.

I love that they asked for comment from the court. “Well, Trump is known to be a clown, you can’t take anything he says seriously.” (ahem) “No comment.”
