"President Trump on Saturday issued a new defense of his controversial travel and refugee restrictions, defending the “ban” from the “so-called judge” who halted the order on Friday.
Federal Judge James Robart, appointed by former President George W. Bush and approved by a 99-0 Senate vote in 2004, issued an immediate nationwide restraining order against Trump’s action, which had cut off citizens from seven Muslim-majority nations from entering the U.S.
Civil liberties groups applauded the ruling, but Trump vowed it would be overturned."
ok we shall see...

This judge is not upholding the law. President Trump has the responsibility and the duty to protect Americans. If that means doing the same damn thing that Obama did to keep terrorists from killing Americans then I'm all for it. Even if it hurts some hypocritical liberal a**holes' feelings in the process.

Trump has the responsibility to uphold the constitution. That's the oath he took.
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Claudia Silva - But how the constitution is interpreted is where various politicians get into trouble.
I am an construction manager and as such I have difficulty understanding people who engage a course of action without thinking thru the possible ramifications. This EO was not looked at for legality or even for its delivery.
Do I think the intent has merit? Yes I do, but the path to the objective was underdeveloped and researched.
Capt Pickett and SPC Voye, kudos on your intelligent dialog and discussion. It's refreshing to see people with differing opinions discuss them with respect.

this is what Happens when you have liberal Judges Still in place after the Election ... in 1993 William Jefferson Clinton replaces over 92 sitting federal Judges to get rod of all the sitting Left overs from Reagan and Bush I... and the conservative Hold outs from Peanut Carter...

SFC George Smith clinton didn't dismiss sitting judges. He dismissed politically appointed attorney generals, just as Reagan did and Bush did. He did do it all at once rather than spread it out more, the same way Trump told all the Ambassadors to resign on inauguration day rather than wait for a replacement to be confirmed.

Replacing U.S. attorneys stretches back to Reagan
Three weeks ago, Justice Department officials settled on a "talking point" to rebut the chorus of Democratic accusations that the Bush administration had wrongly injected politics into law...

Capt Gregory Prickett - again.. another example of someone so deep into their political affiliations beliefs they refuse and even refute facts and science. Both sides are guilty.

The problem isnt Trump disagreeing w/ the judge. All presidents do that. But by saying "so called judge" it feeds this narrative that the judge is somehow illegitimate. This undermines our entire system. It feeds the everything that doesnt support me is rigged conspiracy theories.
