Apparently intoxicated by the adulation coming her way of late, as progressives desperately want her not to retire, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg skates close to political advocacy, which should be taboo for a Supreme Court justice.  Last night, she offered a new excuse for Hillary Clinton’s failure to win what most journalists and politicians believed was a slam-dunk presidential race.

Jacqueline Thomsen reports in The Hill:

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said she thought it was difficult for Hillary Clinton to “get by the macho atmosphere” dominating the 2016 presidential election.

This represents an escalation from her earlier charges that “sexism” played a major role in the election, as she did last September:

CNN’s Poppy Harlow asked Ginsburg at an event at Columbia University Sunday to clarify her comments last year that sexism was a “major factor” in the election.
