Only Justice Thomas’s concurrence addresses the issue of “national injunctions,” which disappoints me. That a single District judge can bring a national policy to a complete halt everywhere and for everyone is, to me, an aspect of current “lawfare” that should be given a legal KO.

Yes Cornhead, the lower courts will continue to abuse their mandates. But if 6-4 or (wishful?) 7-2 Constitutional majority is reached, it will act as a temporary barrier to lawfare aimed at erasing all vestiges of a Republic.

What depresses me is that all of the elections that are going one-way on policy & practice — for literally hundreds of candidates country-wide, not just President and Congress – can be overturned by one man in a black robe.

However, for the moment, that also works for policies I don’t like.

In the long run, this is not a healthy way to run a republic.

The thing is that very few cases reach SCOTUS so the liberal lower courts will continue to misbehave when they can. Resist!

He’s right. Democracy dies with judicial legislation aided and abetted by journolistic bullhorns.

I think we can all declame Truimp can’tt think.” Steve57

You presume much while ignoring a mountain of contrary evidence. Animosity disrupts objectivity.

And politically, Trump shooting “his mouth off” got him elected President. Not because he isn’t full of bombast and crudity but because he’s right about most of the issues and actually wants to follow through and do something about them. Proven by his actions since elected.

An unwillingness to consider contrary evidence reveals a closed mind. Many here were not for Trump during the primaries and feared the worst during the campaign. Many of us only voted for him because the alternative was unthinkable.

Since he was sworn in as President, many here have come to a reluctant but honest reappraisal of Trump. Recognizing that for all his faults, “this man fights”.

Immigration should not exceed the rate of assimilation and integration before Planned Parenthood.

That said, emigration reform to remember children separated from parents by social justice adventures on a trail of tears (UN’s “refugee crises”), and to help the children and parents left behind in second and third-world “shitshows”.
