Preface by saying - court does not care! Gallup Poll US #SupremeCourt’s eventful 2022-2023 term appears to have had no effect on Americans’ overall opinion of high court, with its 40% approval rating the same as Gallup found last September, just before the start of the term. The current rating ties the court’s record-low job score first recorded in September 2021, which ticked up to 43% in July 2022 before dropping back to 40%. #SCOTUS #RuleofLaw #Democracy #constitution https://news.gallup.com/poll/509234/supreme-court-approval-holds-record-low.aspx
But the #SCOTUS is not *supposed* to care.
The whole point of having an independent judiciary is for it to be beyond the opinions and wishes of the masses, for it to actually tell the general public "no" when they want something that runs counter to the rule of law, to the rights of the people.
But mainly, there is so much misinformation about the #SupremeCourt going around that it's largely meaningless.
They should ignore these polls, and fortunately for checks and balances they are insulated from them.
