Schumer praised Roberts in a tweet on Friday for pushing back against President Trump’s criticisms of so-called “Obama judges” and “judicial activism.”
However, social media users were quick to point-out the rest of Schumer’s tweet — where he attacked Roberts for making quote, “highly political” and “partisan decisions.”
Some users questioned if Schumer realized his criticisms of the Supreme Court actually prove President Trump’s point.
