the President pretty much has complete discretion by law:

Maybe, but the same Congress that granted that discretion chose to limit it in the case of asylum.

I'm not arguing the merits, just saying there's a legitimate issue for the courts to decide.

The courts don’t get to decide. The President enforces the law.

...or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”

what restriction did congress impose on asylum? they are aliens attempting entry into the usa whether they are seeking asylum or not as I read it The President may impose restrictions.. we need to see the whole decision.
