The Supremes
Public Policy Polling is out with some news about how much Americans trust the Republican frontrunners to pick a new Supreme Court Justice.
Only 33% of voters trust Ted Cruz to nominate the new Supreme Court justice (57% don’t), only 31% trust Donald Trump to (62% don’t), and just 26% trust Marco Rubio to (61% don’t).
The poll also found that the public feels Taylor Swift is just as qualified as Donald Trump to make a court appointment. I suspect that Lady GaGa would have hit the more qualified threshold.
Independent voters in particular have little faith in the GOP hopefuls to nominate a Supreme Court justice- 61% don’t trust Trump to, and 58% don’t trust either Cruz or Rubio to. One particularly brutal finding for Rubio on this poll is that even among Republicans there are more (45%) who don’t trust him to make that appointment than do (41%) trust him.
Yeah, brutal is right. Even more brutal? Any one of those guys trying to be loved.
Thanks to Debby for the heads up.
