“The supposed evidence that Trump discriminates is based on campaign rhetoric.”
If the court buys that, then they are saying that all politicians speak the truth and all of their campaign promises are fulfilled.
This will open up a lot more lawsuits for all politicians based on their promises- “if you like your doctor/plan, you can keep them”, “save $2500 a year”, ...
Trump’s statements during the campaign were brought up any number of times in yesterday’s hearing. My take on the hearing is that I’ll consider it a miracle if Trump wins with all these democrats. I think they outnumbered the pubs about 9 to 4.
It really had little to do with Trump’s actual written order or the law. The order was rarely mentioned.
