Ruth Bader Ginsburg accepted the 2019 Berggruen Prize for philosophy and culture and spoke candidly about President Donald Trump's impeachment

A number of celebrities, including Olivia Wilde, Karlie Kloss, Al Roker, and Nico Tortorella were also in attendance. Ginsburg did not participate in the red carpet event before the ceremony, where Couric praised the federal judge’s “soft-spoken” and “highly intelligent” personality.

Iqbal asked Ginsburg if President Trump’s requests for the Supreme Court to halt the impeachment process had any merit, but the justice quickly shot down the idea.Trump Faces 2 Articles of Impeachment in Ukraine Scandal, Becoming 4th President Ever to Risk Removal Still, she asserted, “Young people are my hope. And when I, when my granddaughter, who is here tonight, who is doing what she can to make things better in our society. Think of Malala [Yousafzai] … Greta Thunberg. I think the young people say, ‘I’m fired up.’ And they want our country to be what it should be. So my faith and one of the things that makes me an optimist are the other people.”

“What surprised me [about Ginsburg] I think is how close she and Justice [Antonin] Scalia were,” she said. “They used to go to the opera together and drink — they loved good wine. I think in this very sort of polarized age and era, the idea that two polar opposites could be so close and have such genuine fondness and affection for each other just … gives me hope that somehow people can have a relationship even if they don’t see eye to eye.

What Makes Ruth Bader Ginsburg an OptimistIt’s young people—but maybe also remembering that she knows the law better than Donald Trump. Also, she’s sane as opposed to a corrupt, malignant narcissist and avowed sexual predator. You are right. realDonaldTrump is not a lawyer. But since you often need a doctor, SpeakerPelosi says she is one. You want her to take care of you? I am sure she will do as great a job as she does of being Speaker. Good luck with her!!. chuckwoolery RealSaavedra Love this woman!
