Hillary Clinton attacked Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito on his Christian faith in a recent interview, calling the conservative justice “scary” and “a fanatic” for his religious views.
The former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee made the remarks in April during a podcast interview with Democracy Docket’s Marc Elias. A clip from that discussion resurfaced on social media over the weekend.
“You know, I was in the Senate when both John Roberts and Alito were nominated to the court by George W. Bush. Therefore, I had a chance, as you rightly say, to interview both of them,” Clinton said.
“Alito struck me almost immediately…as a radical, as a fanatic, about his views of culture and the role of religion in our society and his religion…And I found him scary.”@HillaryClinton explains how she views the current Supreme Court. Watch here:
