Summary
A new Economist/YouGov poll is a rich text for political observers of the Supreme Court. The Court is unpopular (only 36 percent of American adults approve). It is loathed by Democrats (80 percent of whom disapprove of the Court). And its approval among Republicans is surprisingly soft, given that the GOP controls six of the nine seats on the Court. Only 69 percent of Republicans approve.
