True, but it’s better for him to let this play out imo. After is reaffirmed that POTUS has the authority to rule over all things immigration, these tech companies won’t be able to do a thing when Trump starts enforcing H-1B visas and illegal alien laws.
Trump’s going to take it all the way to the supreme court first. Make no mistake, the courts orders are utterly unconstitutional and the courts are exposing themselves as completely illegitimate institutions by their actions.
Today, President Donald Trump invited the nation’s Sheriffs and Cops to call the Homeland Defense Hotline with the names of the bad gang members and other bad actors in their counties.
Now, the draining of the swamp begins on a whole new level. It is going to be a decentralized effort that, when reported, will enhance the status of local news media, and decrease the influence of the Establishment Media.

As Andrew Jackson said “They’ve made their decision- now let them go enforce it”
there is much more to this than what appears on the surface. I don’t really want to say what all it could be becaus it’s a public forum.
You could regard this court case as a trap to lure Trump into a situation where the Dems will claim “high crimes or misdemeanors”. They might think it useful for their 2020 campaign.
Ultimately, though, Trump or Congress needs to put an end to legislation from the Bench. Making up new laws is not the purview of the courts.
Trump could ignore the ban. And then all the Obama-hires in DHS would ignore Trump’s orders, citing the court decision.
I would love to see some US Marshals show up and arrest these liberal judges for Contempt of the Presidency.
President Trump is enforcing federal laws, already on the books, that his predecessors refused to enforce. Some pissant judge from Seattle has no standing whatsoever in this matter. If these judges want to legislate, then tell them to hang up their black robes and run for congress, otherwise they need to back off and let the executive branch do its job, which is ENFORCING THE LAW.
Even if Trump gets railroaded he has many other options.
For one just write another EO.
I would add Saudi Arabia just to get the left’s goat.:)
This is a serious question...
Does anyone know of a compilation of all the Constitutional principles, laws, policies, traditions, court orders, that Obama violated?
There must be hundreds (thousands?)
Or know of a single competent and effectual National Security order that OBAMA has ever issued?
The long view is that about a few days before Donald Trump announced he was running for President of the United States, President Obama decided unilaterally to make an ‘Iran Deal’ and asserted it would go through the UN.
Eric Trump is on record as saying that the Iran Deal was the straw that broke the camel’s back in his father’s decision to run.
Now, less than two years later, Iran is pursuing nuclear warhead technology and is firing ballistic missiles in a run up to launching nuclear-tipped missiles.
All of this made possible by untold billions and billions given to Iranian crazies.
President Trump correctly saw that world stability was on a path to crumbling and that American lives would soon be at risk. He also knew that terrorist nations and groups would do everything they could to destabilize his term just as they did to President GW Bush.
So it logically followed that measures needed to be taken to have ‘extreme vetting’ of persons coming from known terrorist regions.
And here we are today with the most asinine judges and pols, along with their anarchist thugs, trying their damnedest to cause President Trump to stumble.
It is to the credit of Trump supporters that they have been so reasonable and restrained.
But this situation cannot go on for much longer.
We just had eight years of a president ignoring the law. I’d hoped for better going forward. I expect that President Trump will let this play out in the courts.
If Trump were to ignore their ruling, what are they going to do if he refuses to go along with it? Who's going to stop him? Maybe the Congress? But they need a presidential signature on any legislation. Cut funding to the Executive Branch? Not with an overwhelming majority of GOP in the House.
I heard Trump last evening say he would wait for the court's decision. But then he slammed them this morning for legislating from the bench against his lawful order as president by reading the text of the law itself.
Trump can;
Ram it down their throats
Take the high road
Play a clever game
If he’s taking the high road, he’s a fool, and we are no better off than having gentleman GW in charge.
I fear this is all designed to goad President Trump into acting in a manner that will open up Impeachment Proceedings.
And if it would ever get past the House of Representatives, I have no doubt the Senate would vote to convict.
it is better that DJT gets a court order affirming his action
but
yes he not only COULD ignore the PATENTLY UNCONSTITUIONAL and DIRECTLY AGAINST THE LAW (Statutes) judges’ ruling......
but DJT SHOULD CERTAINLY ignore it and enforce his action
since his action is necessary for National Defense (the courts have NO jurisdiction to impede persidential actions lilke this, and a good number of courts have acted accordingly)
Or he could actually follow the law of the land: And take the case to the only federal court with any jurisdiction in the matter, SCOTUS.
Follow the Constitution.
Obama was very successful at ignoring the law. We should remind Democrats of that fact
No reason, yet, to ignore these judges. Trump has the HIGH GROUND now, and he becomes A GOD if there is a terrorist hit...effectively putting a spike through the Democrat Party for decades.
While I certainly prefer that Americans not have to suffer through a hit, particularly if it’s relatively big - Americans do need to WAKE UP...they need a Pearl Harbor moment to clarify things - and then they will realize just who the Democrats are (and have always been), and what they want to do to this country.
The Dems on on VERY THIN ICE right now, waging their existence as a party on the fact that the terrorists behave for a while...let’s see what happens.
