Trump's claim that it's the appeals court most often reversed by #SCOTUS is categorically false, whether over the last two years, five years, or longer. In fact, that honor goes to the Third Circuit (NJ, PA, DE, VI).
So here, @realDonaldTrump is just lying.

99.9% of lower-court rulings, _including_ those by the Ninth Circuit, are never reviewed by the Justices.
In a nutshell, #SCOTUS takes far too few cases to use its decisions for quantitative evaluations of the circuits.

Even there, though, #SCOTUS also sided _with_ the Ninth Circuit in a major case last Term:
