    The travel ban was written too broadly and it was argued half-heartedly by career liberals in the DOJ.

    The basic policy is sound and Trump will easily win in the end if the ban is re-written.

    He has been absolved of responsibility by the courts, who have taken charge of national security.

    So because Trump was incredibly stupid and had no clue about the law he is now absolved of any responsibility for his own stupidity. Got to love the morons who form Trump's base of support.

    You mean if it is written so it doesn't actually violate the principle that have made America great. Like religious freedom? Trump is a genuine moron with no concept of American greatness.

    The courts think so, that's why they have taken control. Feels safer, don't it.

    The fanatical right won't be happy tonight over this ruling. But they need to realize this isn't Nam, there are rules....Their fanaticism over Muslims shows them to be sick puppies. Why can't they just take their medications?

    Mm, because these protesters obviously speak for all Muslims and all Muslims think exactly alike.

    Not at all, Trump was caught in a no-mans land. After all, he couldn't "ban Muslims" or a registry(and given what you know now, a registry would be WAY better.). This is all because of political opposition to Donald Trump. It really is unprecedented, and a downfall of the US.

    HA! So this is about distraction? Please!
    The President's lawyers better be drafting another EO, or it proves that this EO wasn't necessary.

    The law is not what is being questioned. The Executive Order based on the law is being questionedÂ… and its fate is anything but clear.

    I dont need one. What has what Rudi Giuliani having to say during the campaign got to do with this law or Trumps EO? The law is plain and simple and its been used many times before

    - - - Updated - - -

    It follows the law to a Tee

    He also signed 3 more EO's today. I'd say it's fairly distracting, yes. Look what we're talking about.

    A shiny new EO has been rumored since some local activist judge blocked the old one.

    You do not agree with the ruling so you disparage the judges. Trump being a Dildo Brained Tool disparaged the judges even before they made the ruling. Trump caused the ruling to go against his ban because Trump failed to vette the order and failed to have professionals to help determine if we really have a problem if we did put together a plan put it to the test. This is one reason that I think Trump is not fit to be POTUS and that is he let's his EGO and his mouth make decisions. He claimed that he is the only one who can fix what is "wrong" with the country. Well we just saw one of your attempts to fix something that may not be broken.

    "I’ll tell you the whole history of it: When he first announced it, he said ‘Muslim ban,'" Giuliani said on Fox News.

    "He called me up, he said, ‘Put a commission together, show me the right way to do it legally.’"

    Giuliani said he then put together a commission that included lawmakers and expert lawyers.
    "And what we did was we focused on, instead of religion, danger," Giuliani said.

    "The areas of the world that create danger for us, which is a factual basis, not a religious basis. Perfectly legal, perfectly sensible."

    Giuliani reiterated that the ban is "not based on religion."

    "It's based on places where there are substantial evidence that people are sending terrorists into our country," he said.

    Obviously not and the implementation of it certainly didn't.

    Have a link to that shiny new EO?

    Trump's ego is too big to accept defeat and issue a new, softer EO on the same issue.
