President Trump railed Tuesday against the three Supreme Court justices he nominated after Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh each voted to block new rules for mail ballots before the November midterms.

The clash put Trump in open conflict with his own picks over a major election dispute.

As reported by The New York Post, Trump delivered the criticism in a blunt written statement that portrayed the three justices as dramatically different from the candidates he originally considered for the nation’s highest court.

He accused them of becoming hollow versions of their former selves.

“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court; they are merely a shell of their original selves,” Trump wrote about Barrett, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

The attack amounted to a remarkable public rebuke of all three nominees from the president who selected them.

Trump did not soften his disappointment or conceal his anger over their votes against his request.

“This Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the Radical Left into making decisions that have set America back at least a hundred years.”

Trump’s complaint extended beyond Barrett, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court as an institution.

His statement accused the court of bending under pressure from the Radical Left and issuing decisions that he said had pushed the country backward.

The voting alignment left Trump with support from only Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.

They were the only two justices who sided with the president in the dispute over the planned election rules.

Trump had asked the high court to stay a lower court decision that enjoined his March order.

The Supreme Court’s action kept the new requirements from taking effect before voters head into the November midterms.

The case centered on rules intended to change how states handled voter eligibility lists and absentee ballots.

Those requirements were part of the president’s March order, which had already encountered opposition in the lower court.

Under the proposed rules, every state would have been required to draft a list of citizens eligible to vote.

The list would have served as the approved pool for receiving absentee ballots under the new system.

Absentee ballots would have been sent only to people appearing on that approved list.

Those ballots also would have arrived in secure envelopes equipped with barcodes as part of an effort to prevent election fraud.

The planned system therefore paired state-prepared eligibility lists with tighter controls on absentee ballot distribution.

The barcode requirement for secure envelopes was another component of the proposed safeguards described in the order.

The Supreme Court’s refusal to grant Trump’s request meant those changes could not be implemented before the November elections.

The lower court’s decision enjoining the March order continued to block the rules from taking effect.

Trump’s reaction focused squarely on the justices he had personally nominated and the direction of the court’s decisions.

His language left no ambiguity about how sharply he viewed their departure from his position in the case.

Barrett, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh stood together in voting to block the rules, while Alito and Thomas sided with Trump.

That division prompted the president to question whether his three nominees still resembled the people he had interviewed for the court.

The dispute now leaves the proposed voter list, absentee ballot, and secure envelope requirements blocked before the midterms.

It also leaves Trump publicly furious with three Supreme Court picks he once interviewed and ultimately chose for the bench.
