Republican Presidential Candidate and US Senator from Florida Marco Rubio is a constitutionalist, and as such, says the United States Supreme Court has overstepped their bounds and deviated from their prescribed role. During a town hall meeting in Carroll, Rubio said the Constitution was never meant to be a living document. It was meant to be interpreted based on its original intent and the intent of the amendments, then applied to the case in point.

He said this was one of the arguments made by Justice Antonin Scalia in his descent and that Justices need to make decisions without regard to personal bias.
4525 Rubio “conclusions they want” (18)
Rubio added the issue goes deeper yet because what is being decided by the Supreme Court Justices is not reflective of the vast majority.

In his opinion, the Supreme Court is not playing its proper role in Federal government, and when he is President, this will all change with the appointments he will be making.
