Ginsburg was only calling it like it is

Concerning Lisa Benson's political cartoon, July 15 in The Day. Maybe it's ill-advised for a Supreme Court justice to comment on presidential candidates in general, but I think it's vastly overreaching to accuse Ruth Bader Ginsburg of bias, or, even more absurdly, of some ethical lapse. If you make a rational judgment based on the available evidence, and Donald Trump has provided us with plenty, what's biased about that? You might even say that it would have been less ethical for Ginsburg to remain silent.
