Trump disses Chief Justice John Roberts, rest of Supreme Court

One of the things that happens normally in inauguration week is that the president-elect visits the Supreme Court at the invitation of the Chief Justice, meeting with those justices who are available. But popular vote loser Donald Trump, classless as ever, didn't do that.

Roberts had extended an invitation to Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence to visit the court before the ceremony but it couldn’t be arranged, court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said in an e-mail. Trump and Roberts met at Blair House, across the street from the White House, Arberg said.
Trump, during the presidential campaign, called the Republican-appointed Roberts an “absolute disaster” because of the chief justice’s vote to uphold Obamacare.

"It couldn't be arranged." So Trump summoned Robert to him, for what was characterized by a "brief" meeting. Remember that, Chief Justice Roberts. Remember the contempt with which this man will treat you.
