Trump should just ignore this court order and tell the DHS to continue the temporary ban as instructed! What is this judge going to do besides stamp his feet if Trump ignores his ruling? Judge has zero enforcement power over the executive branch - ask Chief Justice Marshall if you don’t believe me, LOL!!

Trump should then instruct border security that all immigrants must have a few more documents in hand before they are allowed in. Maybe request stamped original birth certificates, copies of their school grades, 50 letters of reference. He is not technically enforcing the ban, just requiring a little more paperwork. Make it much more difficult to enter.
That will give him time until this stupid ruling gets overturned. Drown the applicants with requested paperwork. That will slow them down.

Exactly. Trump should ignore the ruling and state these actions are pursuant to Congressional authorization.

The Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), Pub. L. 107-40, codified at 115 Stat. 224 and passed as S.J.Res. 23 by the United States Congress on September 14, 2001, authorizes the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the attacks on September 11, 2001 and any “associated forces”. The authorization granted the President the authority to use all “necessary and appropriate force” against those whom he determined “planned, authorized, committed or aided” the September 11th attacks, or who harbored said persons or groups.

The AUMF was signed by President George W. Bush on September 18, 2001. As of December 2016, the Office of the President published a brief interpreting the AUMF as providing Congressional authorization for the use of force against ISIS and other Islamic militant groups.

All Trump is doing is conducting operations to interdict the inflow of ISIS and other Islamic militant groups into the US. The force he’s using with the immigration action is simply “non-lethal” force.
