As a nationally elected official -- the only one in the entire USA, the President's oath of office is to support and defend the Constitution.

If he believes the Scotus justices are wrong, he is required by his oath to oppose their rulings.

The Constitution says:

"Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: — "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." "

The Constitution says:

“Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: — “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” “

To do that, He’d have to ignore half of the Supreme Court’s rulings.

And yet no president in our 230 year history has defied a SC decision. No one! This is the stuff Obama will hit Newt with in ads after ads until Newt instead of Obama becomes the target. It’s called winning by deflection.
