Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut appeared on MSNBC’s “Deadline” on Friday, where he emphasized the importance of making the Supreme Court an election issue for Democrats. Blumenthal stated that it is crucial to highlight that the composition of the Supreme Court will have a lasting impact determined by the upcoming election. He stressed that the choices made in the election will shape whether the Supreme Court truly represents American values. Blumenthal also pointed out the declining trust in the Supreme Court and the need to ensure that the court reflects the values of the American people.
Blumenthal placed the blame on Republicans for the current state of the Supreme Court, particularly criticizing Justices Thomas and Alito for allegedly violating fundamental principles and decency. He urged the American people to understand that their choices in elections will directly impact the court and emphasized the importance of putting the court on the ballot.
