The Judiciary has no authority to override the president’s authority. That’s called separation of powers. And they don’t have the authority to decide cases involving non U.S. citizens.
So when the courts struck down Obama's illegal DACA Executive Order, that was unconstitutional?
And they don’t have the authority to decide cases involving non U.S. citizens.
Article III, section 2 of the Constitution gives the federal courts jurisdiction over cases involving "foreign states, citizens or subjects."
I don't think that's true at all. Aliens are often convicted of crimes, incarcerated, and even executed if they commit a crime on US soil. Not trying to apply that to the Trump EO case, just speaking directly to your comment.
As far as the Trump EO case goes, I think the other poster is correct who says that if the law plainly says in black and white that Trump is correct and the court is wrong, he should be able to ignore them and proceed.
If he does ignore them for the right legal reasons, I hope he takes it straight to a Presidential Address on TV to explain why and exactly what you said, since these leftist judges stepped way over their legal authority.
Taking it straight to the American people, for the security of all Americans, would set the true legal narrative before the enemedia had a chance to distort it. You know they will if he doesn't take it straight to the American people.

Of course they have the authority. They get to decide whether the President is following the law that congress has passed. Hence the separation of powers. If congress passes a law then and the Executive branch doesn’t follow it then the courts jump in to decide who is right. That being said when the court issues an opinion based on what they “feel” instead of the law.. then we have a problem. Congress just needs to pass a law that says exactly what Trump wants to do and that ends the story.
