"Likelihood to succeed" is not a value judgment on the merits of the case. It's a legal term that is required in order for the case to even be considered. If a case has no chance whatsoever to succeed, it is generally considered frivolous and is dismissed at the git-go. "Likelihood to succeed" only indicates a non-zero chance of succeeding, i.e that it is not entirely frivolous.

Preliminary injunction is an extraordinary remedy and are only granted when there is a "likelihood to succeed".

I believe "likelihood to succeed" means exactly what it sounds like.

Yep, it seems solid. But we all should know this case will be decided at the SCOTUS on an expedited bases. That will tell us what Trump's chances are.
