I would hope they refuse to hear the case and defer to Congress on immigration laws.

obama seems rather often to confuse the terms ‘president’ and ‘king.’

Probably not.
It’s hard to see any harm from waiting for the case to be heard, or that Obama has a hands-down winning case on the merits. Lots to be looked at in a trial.

It was correctly decided by the trial judge, backed up by the appeals court and the Supreme Court should flatly refuse to hear the appeal. The trial moves forward without lifting the injunction.
