Thread: Chief Justice Roberts Criticises Trump

I admit I don't understand the power of the Supreme Court in the USA but isn't this guy supposed to be a conservative so why is he criticising Trump.

The spectacle of the ostensibly nonpolitical chief justice engaged in a dispute with the president of the United States is insulting to the Supreme Court and to our system of justice.

Totally inappropriate for a justice to do that. Of course it will be lauded by the left. I've had my doubts about his conservatism since he ruled in favor of Obamacare. And I think he's been the swing vote on some other issues that should have gone the other way.
