Attorney General Todd Blanche defended President Trump's public criticism of the Supreme Court, saying the president has every right to challenge another branch of government.
"He's the President of the United States," Blanche said. "So the real question is whether the President of the United States is allowed to be critical of another branch of government. And the answer to that is, ABSOLUTELY."
Blanche pushed back against media criticism of Trump's recent attacks on the Court, calling it a fundamental part of democratic governance. The remarks come as Trump has escalated rhetoric against Supreme Court justices over recent rulings.
