The current Supreme Court has a trust problem and a credibility problem and an ethical problem and their public approval ratings are sinking lower and lower. (And the bad news for all of us is that they don't care. And basically snub their noses at us and say too bad, na na you can't do anything to us and we certainly won't do anything to "fix" our mess) I remember reading about the Canadian Supreme Court where someone said that they did not always know how the court would rule. That is sadly not the case with this court. Many of their rulings are very obvious nods to those that have bought and paid for them. Like the Federalist Society and Leonard Leo, etc. Changes need to be made in the court starting with the loss of lifetime tenure, bad "justices" can do too much damage for too long with little to no recourse to get rid of them. Being polite is one thing, abuse of power and one sided predetermined rulings are completely different. Like Rachel Bitecofer says in her book "Hit 'Em Where It Hurts: How to Save Democracy by Beating Republicans at Their Own Game". "Republicans (and the current Supreme Court, my words) are a threat to our Freedom, our Health, our Wealth, and our Safety".
