In a series of nine tweets over the weekend, President Donald Trump defended his executive order temporarily suspending immigration from seven terrorist-infiltrated countries, and he slammed the federal judge in Washington State who temporarily blocked the order, calling him a so-called judge in one of his tweets.
The liberal media seized on that remark.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), asked if he had concerns about Trumps comment, told CNNs State of the Union on Sunday, Yes, I think it is best not to single out judges for criticism. We all get disappointed from time to time at the outcome in courts on things that we care about. But I think it is best to avoid criticizing judges individually. [ ]

I’d prefer to picture all of the Democrats in R jerseys as former Senators.
the courts have already decided- the SC ruled that a federal judge may NOT second guess a president or his orders- this judge overstepped his authority and disobeyed the SC ruling
You and me both.
“His behavior makes one think that someone has compromising photos or information.”
With Trump’s resources, no reason why he can’t get the same info on the turtle - do it, Mr. President.
I feel sorry for the guy having to go through life without a spine.
I know it's different in the House because the Speaker is a Constitutionally defined role where the Senate Majority Leader is not, but someone needs to whisper in McConnell's ear that life will become difficult for him if he doesn't stand down and let a more "youthful" person assume the reins.
