Poll shows low trust in Supreme Court ahead of Trump immunity decision
The Supreme Court is set to rule on whether former President Donald Trump is immune from criminal prosecution, a decision that could redefine presidential power and impact the court's reputation as a new poll suggests public confidence is already low.
"Most people that I’ve talked to think this is political, and it's just further evidence of what the poll results show, that the justices are favoring Trump or helping Trump avoid trial,” said American University Law Professor Stephen Wermiel. “I'm not in that camp. I think the court is going to issue what, in its mind, is a major constitutional decision.”
According to the latest Associated Press-NORC Center survey, 7 in 10 Americans think justices are more influenced by ideology, rather than impartiality.
Well, they are. And no one knows how this one will break, so your guess is as good as any.
