S5E17 | POTUS v. SCOTUS: How America's Presidents Dared & Defied America's Highest Court


Listen Later

Pres. Trump is not the first U.S. president to have strained relations with America's courts, including our Highest Court - the Supreme Court of the United States. In fact, more than one U.S. president has openly expressed his personal animosity toward one or more Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court.


In this interview, I discuss the following with Dr. Barbara Perry:

►Our Founding Years:

-U.S. Constitution, Washington & Adams

-Jefferson and Chief Justice Marshall (that malignity!)

-Marbury v. Madison (you learned about this case in high school)

►The Jackson Era:

-Jackson & Marshall

-Jackson & Chief Justice Taney

►The Civil War:

-Lincoln & Taney

►The New Deal:

-FDR & Court-packing (The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse)

►Watergate:

-Nixon and his tapes

►The Trump Era:

-historical perspective to what's happening now

►The Miller Center:

-its mission and activities

►The White House Historical Association:

-its mission and activities
