The U.S. Supreme Court has a reputation problem.
Sliding approvalA Gallup survey conducted in July painted an especially stark picture, pegging approval at 33%, the lowest since the pollster started measuring the Supreme Court’s standing in 2000.
The Marquette poll asked about 13 recent Supreme Court decisions, and a majority of people said the justices had made the right decision in 11 of those case.
The poll also found that 58% of people believe the court’s decisions are mainly based on politics, rather than the law.
And 63% of Republicans held the inaccurate belief that the Supreme Court rarely or never sides with Trump.
