Just 24% of Democrats view the Supreme Court favorably
In the new survey, Democrats are three times as likely as Republicans (60% vs. 20%) to say that the court has too much power.
Following a series of high-profile rulings addressing such issues as affirmative action, LGBTQ rights and student loans, the share of Americans with a favorable opinion of the U.S. Supreme Court has declined to its lowest point in public opinion surveys dating to 1987.
Fewer than half of Americans (44%) now express a favorable opinion of the court, while a narrow majority (54%) have an unfavorable view, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.
