Senate Democrats have launched a "calculated effort" to undermine public opinion on the Supreme Court, CBS News reporter Jan Crawford argued Sunday.
After CBS correspondent Major Garrett brought up the court’s record-low approval rating on Sunday’s "Face the Nation," Crawford suggested the issues began way before 2024.
"It really started and took off in the wake of the Dobbs decision, the court’s ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade," Crawford said. "The outrage was so extreme that you saw, I think, a quite calculated effort to undermine legitimacy of the Supreme Court by Democrats, Senate Democrats. For example, hearings, stories about scandals, some of which were pretty overblown, to say the least. So that has an impact on public opinion."
She continued, "The public starts to believe this court is corrupt, that this is on the take. None of which is true. This is still a court — you may disagree with their decisions — is a very conservative court. It is not a corrupt court. These are nine justices who have very different views on how to interpret the Constitution, who are kind of in this titanic struggle over law, not politics."
