“STFU, postpone this battle until Mr. Gorsuch is confirmed, then win it all.”

I think that, based on Gorsuch’s comments on Wednesday, we can’t count on him to do the right thing. Another elitist lib.

We can start with everyone who is not a U.S. citizen. The line forms to the rear.

Well, thankfully - you don't get to make that decision.

No apologies from me. I like my Toyota cars, but Japs have longer memories than I do and Shinzo is directly descended from members of the Tojo government. Sort of like having the son of Heinrich Himmler drop in for a visit.

Understand and respect your viewpoint - just disagree with it.

Your post seem to have invited quite a bit of nasty trolls. Yuck.

And thankfully I am not the only one who thinks that it is fully appropriate and within the full scope and authority of the President to do so.

Well, it is within his power to stop ALL immigration for a period of time to allow for some sort identification process to be put in place. No papers from your homeland? No admission!

Any word on the topic(s)?

Probably going to preview the Mets' prospects for the upcoming season.

"Mr. President, STFU.."

I totally disagree. The ruling yesterday was nothing short of the extension of the civil war being waged by the left. WE MUST FIGHT THIS WAR and not turn our backs and let the sleeping mangy dog lie!

Trump is an 'in your face' fighter who doesn't back down. He must come out swinging and send a message that such UNCONSTITUTIONAL rulings will not be allowed to stand.

Nah, he is far from an elitist liberal.

The presidents comments were unneeded, and harmful to what he is trying to do.

I wish our president would simply stop TALKING for a while and simply DO.

Mr. Trump is handing the libs the rope with which to hang him.

Be silent, be sober and let this rest for a while.

Get Gorsuch confirmed, then sweep the table.

Hopefully Trump pulls an Andrew Jackson at the news conference and declares that while he appreciates the 9th circuit offering their opinion, like Abraham Lincoln and the suspension of Habeas Corpus during the Civil War, he has determined that these refugees pose a "clear and present danger" and therefore he is invoking presidential emergency powers, and his executive order is not subject to further court review and will be fully reinstated immediately.

Then watch all the hand-wringing liberals heads explode live on national TV....

Yes, we must fight the war, but not continue a battle when the cards are stacked against us, until we can re-shuffle the deck.

Back off, fight the battle after Mr. Gorsuch is confirmed, win it all (there will be MANY more cases) and stop tripping over egos.

My comments are not about the correctness of the president’s position. They are about the TACTICS needed to win.

Don’t be so hard on him, I was alive and old enough to remember WW2 and believe me the Japanese were not very well thought of because of their actions against the American troops in the South Pacific. They were real savages, the Geneva Convention meant nothing to them.

Believe me, our relations have come a long way, which is good.

Sadly most people won’t watch it, and all they will watch is the evening news programs about whatever he says. By then, the MSM will have formulated their talking points and spin and it will be portrayed as a racist, hateful rant by a maniacal dictator.

No, too young for WWII. But I am a student of history. And, if one holds a grudge, the Japs are numero uno in my book to be the “grudgees.

Well using that same logic, then I guess we can't blame black people for holding a grudge against white people.

I totally agree with you, SamAdams, that statement above by the other poster is illogical. His tirade against our Japanese friends is uncalled for, and actually betrays a skewed and narrow perspective of the trajectory of history.

Trump should ignore the rulings and proceed IAW with his sole authority under the law. He will be vindicated in the SCOTUS.
