Scarborough on SCOTUS Leak: Americans Will Rightly Conclude that Their Votes No Longer Matter

‘Americans will rightly conclude that their voices and their votes no longer matter’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "You know, the court has always been guided by the law, but it’s also been keenly aware that as only unelected branch of American government, they needed to not be openly contemptuous of public opinion. That would be especially true today, given the GOP’s 'might makes right' approach to the sacking of Merrick Garland’s nomination or the elevation of Donald Trump’s final pick. One more thing. Look at this picture, Mika, from Madeleine Albright’s funeral. The five Democratic politicians in the front row won the most votes in the presidential elections of 1992, 1996, 2000, 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020. And yet, a half century of constitutional rights, supported by over 70% of Americans — let me underline that again because people lying to you on other channels will never say this — over 70% of Americans support that constitutional right, it will be swept away not by the presidents in this picture, the presidents who were outvoted in each one of those elections over the last three decades. Now, Americans will rightly conclude that their voices and their votes no longer matter."
