Do you personally have confidence in America’s judicial system and courts?

👍 Yes (21%) – "I still believe that our independent jury system is the best in the world although I do believe that some judges make rulings with a partisan bias in some cases. That erodes confidence in the very system that otherwise works the way it’s designed and supposed to work."

• "I believe the court system works as good as expected. If I had a concern it would be with the presentarion gathering of facts and evidence. To me, higher level accountability trials like impeachment are a false. No President has ever lost a Senate Trisl because the system us too politicized. I think there is only fairness when the facts and evidence are not made to get a person just to get a conviction. The Republicans have done a terrible job supporting our justice system and have worked very hard to sow anerican distrust in the way the system works. The rule of law does not work in a country that does nor believe in their Justice system."

👎 No (79%) – "US Courts are a "pay to play" system where the average person can't afford to participate. The cost of defending one's self against a civil suit can easily bankrupt the average household, and the cost of bringing suit is beyond the means of the majority."

• "Judging is supposed to be blind, but when judges are appointed by politicians with an agenda, it puts activist judges on the bench. It’s not just a judicial issue. Every area of society seems to be politically motivated and corrupt these days. Instead of leaders, we have politicians driven by greed and power influencing those who are making decisions based on an outcome they desire rather than the law as it is written."

"Clearly the weaponization of the judicial system against Donald Trump magnified the problem of unequal justice, but then the pardon of Hunter Biden, and the failure to punish crime led by activist progressive judges in most metro areas is the clincher."

• "Trump appointed too many of his cronies and the GOP has blocked Dems from stocking the system with many of their own. I imagine we're going to have a lot of things taken away over the next 4 years as the courts and legislatures align with the rich businessmen that put them there and who have no interest in helping everyday people."

"At the local level, I feel jurors do not have the critical thinking skills needed to fairly and impartially weigh a person's guilt or innocence. Also, politically appointed judges are often not ruling fairly. Finally, our Supreme Court has been tainted by corruption and grift, making the highest court in our country the laughing stock of the world."

• "Justice is supposed to be blind, not political. When the president of the United States, ignores the law and the decisions of the Supreme Court and forgives student loans that are legally binding to make a political statement, that’s one of many reasons for the lack of respect."

"Hard to have confidence in the courts when politicians are not held to the same standards, corporations are prioritized over people, and our own Supreme Court justices have conflicts of interest in the form of inappropriate gifts, trips, etc."
