Ginsburg's comments on Trump made her a participant in the election. That's unethical

To the editor: As a lawyer, and with all due respect to Erwin Chemerinsky, I vehemently disagree with his position that it was appropriate for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to voice her negative opinion of Donald Trump. (“Ruth Bader Ginsburg has nothing to apologize for in her criticism of Donald Trump,” Opinion, July 18)

The basis of the separation of powers under our Constitution is so that each branch of our government provides a “check and balance.” Justices are akin to referees, and imagine if referees were to state their personal preferences before any sporting event.
