It's not the first time he has shown utter disrespect for the Supreme Court. That is what is unprecedented for a POTUS!!
He is a punk. |

If Bush said the same thing you'd give him props for being a tough guy.

Nonsense. Bush had no problem attacking judges striking down bans on gay marriage.
The funny thing about judicial activism is that it flips 180 degrees pretty quickly.

President Bush Delivers Remarks at Federalist Society's 25th Annual Gala
"For the judiciary, resisting this temptation is particularly important, because it's the only branch that is unelected and whose officers serve for life. Unfortunately, some judges give in to temptation and make law instead of interpreting. Such judicial lawlessness is a threat to our democracy -- and it needs to stop." |
"If you're arguing with an idiot, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."
