When the Supreme Court acts like a legislative body overturning established precedent that they lawyerly failed to tell the truth about in their confirmation hearings they are viewed correctly as a political body.
Not one elected or wanted by the majority of voters.
Unpopular legislation doesn’t work.
Just wait for what the ultra right wing Court does next, because in a concurring opinion overturning Roe, Justice Thomas said that SCOTUS should reconsider opinions protecting same-sex relationships, marriage equality and contraceptives.

The court must "'correct the error' established in those precedents," Thomas said.

The only saving grace about Justice Thomas's concurrence is that no other justice joined it. At least, not today.

So now for good cause American confidence in Supreme Court sinks to lowest level ever recorded by Gallup
