SCOTUS: Muslim ban "squarely within President's authority"

How ya figure?

There is precious little that your Lying Dotard has done that hasn't undermined the rule of law. He promised a Muslim Ban on day one, but ended up taking 1.5 years to deliver this useless policy.

Well, if you'd tone down the drama a bit, the answer is simple. The Prez - no matter who it is sitting in the chair - is legitimately executing his role when directing another part of the executive branch to change procedure.

See? Wasn't that easy?

You obviously don't understand what "rule of law" even means. Its definition "the restriction of the arbitrary exercise of power by subordinating it to well-defined and established laws" is something Trump constantly tries to undermine with his impulsive and arbitrary brainfarts, as he did with versions 1&2 of his Muslim ban, not to mention his recent border fiasco, transgender ban, his Executive Orders on sanctuary cities and his incessant attacks on DOJ, free press and the truth.

You obviously don't understand that ver 1 and 2 were not at issue before the SCOTUS.

Version 3 was only necessary because versions 1&2 were obviously illegal and reflected Trump's arbitrary exercise of power, as did all of my other examples. Your Dear Leader is a malignant and impulsive idiot and you're too much of a cultist to even recognize that his (barely legal) 3rd version won't accomplish anything (other than allow cultists like you to believe that it does). Sad.
