Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Thursday she regrets lambasting Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
“On reflection, my recent remarks in response to press inquiries were ill-advised and I regret making them,” the associate justice said in a statement.
She added: “Judges should avoid commenting on a candidate for public office. In the future I will be more circumspect.”
Ginsburg has taken heat for her criticism of Trump. More recently, she said she doesn’t even “want to contemplate” what a Trump presidency would do to the Supreme Court.
Trump then called for her to resign over the comments, and she has since faced backlash for interjecting her opinion into the 2016 race.
