Let's play, "Guess the irony". Starring SC justice Neil Gorsuch.

I won't lead the witness. Read the article and play the game.

He thinks it’s scary so many can’t name the the branches of government. That’s easy.
  • President Trump
  • Senate Majority Leader McConnell
  • Attorney General Barr

That’s all you need to run the government right?
 
I have a different perspective on Gorsuch than I think everyone here, including the Republicans on the board. My imagination is that he was speaking to conservatives in advocating for a greater understanding and adherence to the tenets of our government. I expect a sitting Supreme Court Justice would have to be quite careful about rendering an opinion directly on Trump's abuse of power. But I also don't think he was going on TV or publishing his book specifically to address the Trump presidency.
 
I’d like to think he went on fox and friends to influence them and maybe to point out in a non accusatory way that they couldn’t make Shit up.

We can dream right?
 
Throwing a pissy-fit over Rolling Stone's error about the rapes is like making a two-year investigation over the Benghazi miscalculation and the four casualties. Or forever demonizing the CIA because the Bush administration used it as a tool to press their weapons-of-mass-destruction concerns.

As for Gorsuch, I've never been uncomfortable when politicians and elected officials appear on Colbert or Jimmy Kimmel. I do become uncomfortable when a Supreme appears on some hosted celebrity venue. I am especially uncomfortable when Gorsuch goes on FOX to make pronouncements, no matter how reasonable.
