3 key Trump mistakes that led to the travel ban court defeat

[ABX]

President Donald Trump's three-week-old administration took a thrashing from a federal appeals court Thursday as a panel of three judges unanimously rejected his request to resume enforcement of his controversial travel ban executive order.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling put into sharp relief several tactical and strategic errors Trump and his aides made in crafting, implementing and defending the order, which the president said was needed to ward off the terrorist threat posed by foreigners entering the U.S....

Why the 9th Circuit Refused to Reinstate Trump's Travel Ban:
The appeals court thinks many people affected by the executive order have plausible due process claims.

Gee, I heard competent counsel, say people outside the USA borders have no claim of "due process" as an automatic "right." He further opined that meant 7 billion earthly souls, would desire the benefits of said "due process," and be lining up for our borders.

But if Politico says it is so, it must be so.

*said competent counsel also noted that NOWHERE in the 3 judge panel's decision, was any mention made of the controlling 1952 immigration statues.

Apparently we are no longer a nation of laws, but instead a nation of "feelings." And foreigners' and outsiders' feelings above all.

Gibmedats on an international scale. September 11, 2001 didn't happen. We are just as stupid (some of us) as the Germans and Swedes.
