最高法院大法官尼尔·戈萨奇表示，他的同僚们之间的分歧通常与其说是政治问题，不如说是对宪法解释的方法存在分歧——他称这种动态既影响最高法院的裁决，也影响其内部关系。
“这与政治毫无关系，”戈萨奇在最近一次采访中告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，“这关乎你如何解读法律。关乎解释方法。”
2017年由唐纳德·特朗普总统提名的戈萨奇自称“文本主义者”，他指出自己的解读方式侧重于根据法律文本撰写时的词语普通含义进行解释。这一哲学理念与原旨主义一脉相承——即认为应当根据宪法通过时的公众原始含义来解读宪法。
其他大法官则持有不同的解释方式，包括允许随时间推移不断演变的解释。戈萨奇强调，这些分歧尽管意义重大，但本质上并非个人恩怨。

“归根结底，你是在努力寻求法律框架下的正确答案，”他说，并补充道，分歧是该过程中意料之中且有益的一部分。
他发表此番言论之际，联邦司法系统和最高法院大法官近年来受到越来越多的审查，包括特朗普及其盟友的批评，他们指责法院侵犯了他们眼中的行政分支职责。
上个月，特朗普在真相社交平台上批评最高法院的保守派多数派在2月阻止他所谓的“解放日”关税政策时“对他几乎没有忠诚度”。
他还暗示大法官们可能会阻止他旨在结束美国所谓“出生地公民权”的行政命令。
“某些‘共和党’大法官变得软弱、愚蠢且糟糕，完全违背了他们‘理应’坚持的立场，”特朗普说道。

他将此与法院的自由派大法官形成对比，特朗普称自由派大法官“像胶水一样团结在一起，完全忠于将他们送上岗位的民众和意识形态”。
而就戈萨奇而言，他强调大法官们往往有大量的共识，即便他们对宪法的解释导致得出不同的结论。
他表示，这种态度也体现在大法官们闭门共事的方式中——协作和辩论是最高法院履行宪法职责的核心。

“建国先贤们明白，人们会带着不同的观点坐到谈判桌前，”戈萨奇告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，“目标是共同推理。”
尽管意识形态分歧可能十分尖锐，但戈萨奇强调，最高法院的文化建立在相互尊重的基础之上。

“如果你静下心来倾听某人足够久的时间，你会找到彼此可以达成共识的地方，”他补充道，“或许你可以从这里入手。”

Gorsuch says ideological divides on Supreme Court come down to ‘how you read law,’ not politics

Gorsuch drew a line between textualism and other legal views shaping Supreme Court splits

Gorsuch cites judicial independence as cornerstone of US democracy
Justice Neil Gorsuch told Fox News Digital why America’s framers rejected political influence over the courts.

Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said differences among his colleagues on the high court are often less about politics than they are about diverging approaches to constitutional interpretation — a dynamic, he said, that influences both the court’s rulings and its internal relations.
“That has nothing to do with politics,” Gorsuch told Fox News Digital in a recent interview. “That has to do [with] how you read law. Interpretive methodologies.”
Gorsuch, who was nominated by President Donald Trump in 2017, has described himself as a “textualist,” noting his approach focuses on interpreting legal texts based on the ordinary meaning of the words as written. The philosophy is linked to originalism — or the view that the Constitution should be interpreted based on its original public meaning when it was adopted.
Other justices have different interpretations, including ones that allow for evolving interpretations over time. Gorsuch stressed that differences, while significant, are not inherently personal.

“At the end of the day, you’re trying to get to the right answer under the law,” he said, adding that disagreement is an expected, and healthy, part of the process.
His remarks come as the federal judiciary and members of the Supreme Court have come under increasing scrutiny in recent years, including by Trump and his allies, who have criticized the courts for impinging on what they see as the duties of the executive branch.
Trump took to Truth Social last month to criticize the Supreme Court’s conservative majority for showing him “very little loyalty” in blocking his so-called “Liberation Day” tariffs in February.
He also suggested they might block his executive order seeking to end so-called “birthright citizenship” in the U.S.
“Certain ‘Republican’ Justices have just gone weak, stupid, and bad, completely violating what they ‘supposedly’ stood for,” Trump said.

He contrasted this with liberal justices on the court, whom Trump said “stick together like glue, totally loyal to the people and ideology that got them there.”
Gorsuch, for his part, stressed that the justices often share plenty of common ground, even if their interpretation of the Constitution prompts them to reach different conclusions.
That approach, he suggested, carries over into how the justices work together behind closed doors — where collaboration and debate are central to the high court to perform its constitutional duties.

“The framers understood that people would come to the table with different views,” Gorsuch told Fox News Digital. “The goal is to reason together.”
While ideological divides can be sharp, Gorsuch emphasized that culture at the high court is built on mutual respect.

“If you sit and listen to someone long enough, you’re going to find something you can agree on,” he added. “Maybe you start there.”
