In case of a loss on this issue, can Trump make other orders which are similar? Can he ban all immigration in the interestof National Security?
Yes. Trump can do that.
Ya know, you bring up an interesting concept...
What if the entire idea was to get rejected on narrow and reasonable, so he could just simply say everyone stay the F out?
It’s the next step that matters, not this one. If the 9th refuses him, they’ve walked right into his trap?
The language of the law is so clear and unambiguous that...
Oh never mind.
Congress can do away with the 9th and create a different replacement. Trump can then fill it with only his nominees. This can be done with all federal courts except the SC. In the case of the SC, however, the number of justices can be reduced down to one I believe. And the next day increased back to nine. At which point Trump could again nominate eight new justices.
The downside is if the Dems get the house, senate, and executive back they can do the same. But I suspect if they do gain that level of control again they will do exactly that regardless of the actions of the current congress.
These judges are stupid. He can order the state department to revoke all visas from the affected countries, and issue no more.
What are the judges going to do? They are going to scream and whine and bitch and yank out their hair.
Same result, and he can tell the judiciary to go F*** themselves if they think they can stop him.
This is an incredibly stupid place to pick a fight with the President. They can't win it, and he will demonstrate to them how powerless they are to f*** with him.
No. Because it would be mean.
