But she said a reality star has no place in politics: 'Because I feel reality is biased and can be twisted to be perceived to be one way or another and in order to be on the justice system you have to be facts and no opinions. [sic]'

Her pink-haired pal said she was a Trump supporter but was shocked by his 'decision'.

She continued to say the reality world should not being policies without realizing Trump is also a reality star but she did not rule out more Kardashians joining the Supreme Court bench.

Kourtney was her pick as was another man's, who said: 'Kourtney would have made a great Supreme Court Justice because I think out of all the Kardashians she seems to be the one with the best grip on reality.'
