Yes, Trump can and should—although there are huge political considerations. But there is also a separate remedy: Congress decides which cases and controversies the federal courts decide (aside from a few specified in the Constitution), and it could withdraw immigration law from them altogether. It is long past time that Congress exercised this prerogative, and this is an excellent place to start—not that any of them has the guts.

Issue a new EO more sweeping.

Ignore the judges/courts that don't have jurisdiction.
And notify them of this.

Let them fight to prove they do.

If the Congress, and the People, do not rise to fight this lawlessness they’ll not fight for anything.

If these judges are willing to ignore the current, clearly stated laws, what makes you think they'd pay attention to a new law that takes away their power?

If congress takes away immigration law from the court system will that affect citizenship rulings as in Natural Born Citizen determination when Rubio or Cruz try to run for office?
