DEMS/OBAMA/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump’s recent comments about ‘Obama judges’ who ruled against him captured headlines and even drew scrutiny from the chief Supreme Court justice, but judges appointed by Democrats aren’t the only to rule against the Trump administration. The president this week argued the 9th District Court of Appeals consistently rules against the policies of his administration, calling it a “disgrace.” He blamed the loses on ‘Obama judges,’ a reference to those who were appointed by former president Barack Obama. A war of words broke out between Trump and Chief Supreme Court Justice John Roberts Wednesday over the president’s angry comments about judges who rule against him. Roberts, in a rare rebuke of a sitting president, said the country doesn’t have ‘Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges.'”
