Fox News reports:
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Thursday she regrets the critical comments she made about presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, after facing a bipartisan backlash.
“On reflection, my recent remarks in response to press inquiries were ill-advised and I regret making them. Judges should avoid commenting on a candidate for public office. In the future I will be more circumspect,” she said in a statement.
Ginsburg had given an interview to The New York Times saying she didn’t “even want to contemplate” the country and court under a President Trump. She later called him a “faker” in a separate interview.
