Ignoring judicial decisions has consequences such as contempt of court.

I would argue that the little judges who are trying to give Trump a hard time are in contempt of the US Supreme Court:

The Supreme Court’s decision in Mississippi v. Johnson reinforced the separation of powers by affirming that the judiciary could not enjoin the President from performing his executive duties, particularly those involving discretion. This case set a precedent for the immunity of the President from judicial injunctions concerning discretionary actions. Mississippi v. Johnson, 71 U.S. 475, 18 L. Ed. 437, 4 Wall. 475, 1866 U.S. LEXIS 897

I would like to see the little judges charged.

The problem is that judges are permitted to issue contempt orders, and even if it is later determined that the order is wrong, the contempt fines still stick. Congress needs to limit this jurisdiction over the executive branch. Will they act? People need to demand it. As the outrage grows, SCOTUS will take action.
