With two federal judges issuing a halt to Trump's Muslim ban EO, on the basis that the executive office is acting OUTSIDE of the Constitution, is a serious setback for the WH and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump decides to ignore the federal courts' block on the ban.
What is rather interesting for Trump backers to contemplate is that IF they choose to criticize or ignore the federal courts' ruling, they are actually UNDERMINING their own rhetoric that Neil Gorsuch should be appointed to the SCOTUS because he is a staunch supporter of the Constitution.....
Logic would then have it that one of the FIRST questions that senators will be asking of Gorsuch during his upcoming hearings, will be....DO YOU, SIR, SUPPORT WHAT FEDERAL JUDGES HAVE DECIDED, OR DO YOU, SIR, FOLLOW BLINDLY WHAT YOU POLITICAL LEANINGS DICTATE?
The response would be both interesting and entertaining.
