A pity that Scalia passed away or the decision would have been 5-4 and set a precedent preventing any future president from every trying to abuse executive orders this way, but I suppose a victory is a victory, and at this point I’ll take any win we can get.

SCOTUS violates its own precedents when expedient, so there is only transient value to any decision. Obama will just take his policy underground. Congress won't do anything but make political hay out of it.

The only "win" is rhetorical. Boots on the ground is Obama's policy.

When Trump is elected president, the whole atmosphere in the US will change. No more split of Americans. No more welfare. Work will be rejoiced. It will be a happy day for 80 percent of Americans. Hope will be alive again. No more attacking Christians. BUT we must NOT get complacent. We must remain in warrior mode. Evil will not take Trump’s win lightly; and we should not take it for granted.

I long for the day that Trump starts appointing judges.
