You missed the funniest part of the exchange: when the CBS interviewer asked how Gorsuch responds to so many people being surprised based on what they thought they knew, Gorsuch must have bit his tongue against saying, well it sounds like CBS should have done a better job of informing the public, doesn't it?

These reporters are causing exactly the problem Gorsuch was being asked about.

"There are people watching this who thought they understood those issues and this court has told me I didn't understand. What would you say to that?"

"Ummm ... that's what they get for watching CBS?"

If there was only a branch of government that had the power to make laws. 🤔

[chickenfishhybrid]

People thought slavery and segregate schools were "settled" at one time too. Like what's your point? Lol

[joshualieberman]

The problem is that the politicians have politicized the court. And the Justices don't speak up very much, so all you hear is how political the court is. The fact that most people don't understand how the Court works or has basic knowledge of the Constitution doesn't help matters either.

The court let the People decide. thanks.

I have talked to people who claim to be well-informed who think that either a) The Supreme Court has banned abortions, or b) The Court has said Congress cannot pass a national bill legalizing abortion. Neither is true. As noted in the commentary in this video, there are too many reporters or commentators who know these facts but intentionally play dumb in the way they construct their questions.

You could tell from the interviewer's voice that the Roe reversal was a big rug pull for him.

I am always gonna watch a video titled, "Entity I like DESTROYS entity I don't like with FACTS and LOGIC"

[LuisVelazquezLV]

Amber is 100% correct on "many people are saying".... aka i am saying

[GOD]

Reliance on the court to stretch the law so things can be accomplished is onyl going to lead to an oligarchy where the 9 people decide the country's fate.

[Michael-vzh]

Umm didn't the epa just just issue emergency order in violation on chevron rule. About pesticides..

[tanakaba]

The over-the-top title made me laugh, thanks for that.

[jacobstamm]

Gorsuch didn’t “school the interviewer”. He answered a good question with an even better answer.

[jacobdeem]

We have had a liberal bent supreme court for years. We now have court making decisions based on the constitution

[damiengrief]

Gorsuch is easily my favorite Justice. He's well spoken, a great legal mind, and he's principled. I love that he's not super ideological in terms of political opinions and always sides with his Constitutional principles - which is why he ends up siding with the "liberal" Justices half the time. He's the most originalist of the "conservative" wing of the Court and was the best thing Trump did while in office last time.

I despise the way the media and politicians on the left muddy the waters and slander the Court. They misrepresent rulings with shocking headlines and politicians can't handle losing battles so they resort to calling for packing the Court and other BS authoritarian policies.

What happened to the Libertarian ideal of letting "people" decide for themselves ?
"The people " is the road to Collectivism.

Gorsuch is my new favorite. Scalia is sorely missed, but I really like Neil.

[leonardshevlin]

Roe v Wade was 7-2.
The majority comprised FIVE Eisenhower and Nixon appointees.
One Kennedy justice and the newest Nixon justice dissented.

[nunyabidness]

I actually think Major Garrett was honestly asking what his viewers might ask. Just because a lot of reporters are dishonest, doesn’t mean they all are. I bet there’s some lefty out there screaming that he is throwing softball questions.
