Justice Ginsberg attacks the legitimacy of Trump's candidacy

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg calls Trump a 'faker,' he says she should resign - CNNPolitics.com

Trump thinks he can attack a judge's heritage and ethnicity but reacts badly to being called out by Ginsberg.

She was great friends with Scalia. She believes in civility. She obviously believes Trump's candidacy is an attack on the Constitution.
While Ginsberg regrets her comments about Trump, declaring it was an obvious bias against the next possible president of the US, the US regrets the day Ginsberg was made a SC justice. She should be recalled, if that is possible.

Recalled? You mean impeached?
On what grounds?
What allegations of legal or ethical misconduct?
.
Canon 5 of the judicial rules of ethical conduct.

She should receive some sort of judicial reprimand. When Trump is elected president, she will not be permitted to file an opinion on any case where the US is a party. She has to recuse herself or be removed from any case in which Trump is a party.

Effectively, her career is over. She might be allowed to remain on the bench but be very limited in what cases she will be permitted to hear.

According to whom?

A 'judicial reprimand' from whom?

And who will prevent her from filing any opinion even if Donnie were to be elected? The answer is no one. No one has the authority to require her to do anything. Except Congress who could impeach her. And wouldn't that be fun to watch?

Effectively she is at the peak of any judges career- and she will continue to be a Supreme Court justice until she either retires or dies.
The judicial council oversees matters like this. Supreme court justices are not omnipotent. That's why they have rules and Ruthie broke a big one. She won't be impeached. She won't be removed. She will just be sidelined. The chief justice assigns the cases. She just won't get many. Her bias will be challenged. She apologized realizing she had gone too far. It's all good. She's too old to carry a full case load anyway.

"The judicial council"?

What 'judicial council' has any authority over any Supreme Court justice?

The Chief Justice assigns the cases- and that is that. And he has no obligation to follow your 'recommendations'.

Ginsberg will continue to hear cases until she either dies or retires.

And too old? Oliver Wendell Holmes retired at 90.

ethical misconduct

LOL the very thought of that impeachment hearing is pretty hilarious.

Republicans can't even agree on Trump.

The idea that they would line up to impeach a Justice because she said what half of them are also thinking is frickin hilarious.
