RINO snorts:
"Courts exist to seek truth, to arbitrate legal disagreements, and try criminals. They are not meant to be unilateral agencies of policy or practice. Congress decides policy; the Executive implements practice."
The courts will NEVER reform themselves from their over-reach into the realm of politics.
And further, Congress will NEVER act to restrain them. They can barely pass a continuing resolution.
You'll be dead before this happens. Even then, it won't.
It's up to the president -- Mr. Trump -- to define a new Constitutional relationship that will re-align the prerogative of the courts vis-a-vis the Executive branch.
Once again, I present this:
===================
There needs to be proclaimed (yes, proclaimed) "The Trump Doctrine" on the relationship between the Executive and the Judiciary.
It must re-define how much power the federal courts have to exercise against the president and his powers.
No individual federal judge anywhere should have the power to overturn executive action.
At the district court level, when and where federal/nationwide policies are impacted, judges should have no more power other than to issue an opinion (strictly an "opinion", not a "ruling").
It will be up to the president as to whether to accept or reject such an opinion.
If rejected, then it can be appealed upwards to the next level. The president should declare in his proclamation that only a judgment by the full appellate court (NOT a 3-judge panel) will be binding -- and ONLY within the confines of that district -- AGAIN, IF the president chooses to accept the ruling.
And after that, we're left with the U.S. Supreme Court. Of course, this is going to carry more weight, but I've come to the (very personal) conclusion that even the 9 justices in their black robes should not be entrusted to dictate final decisions before the American people.
Rather, in matters of national social and cultural importance, any U.S. Supreme Court decision should be "annullable-cancelable" by a vote of the U.S. Congress and Senate.
Frankly, I don't even trust most of our "elected leaders" (do YOU?).
I'd rather see such matters put up to a national vote -- much like the Swiss people do RIGHT NOW.

Lots of talkers in this forum.
Talkin' the talk, but never once does anyone suggest how to walk the walk.
The most that folks do here is complain.
No solutions.
My "solution" is above.
If you really want reform of the judiciary, this is the way to force it upon them.
And let the chips fall where they may.
