[Cattledog]

That’s what I wanted to do in the first place.”

7. Thanks! That comment will be used to justify another stay on implementing the ban.

He and Giuliani shoot themselves in the foot all the time because they just have to run their yappers.

2. He might as well after his "it's just a watered down version of the first"

He's stupid enough to think he's smart

3. Go all the way? Is Trumpy going to have a final solution?

4. Trump will create a false flag in order to

get one of these suckers to be upheld.

6. Being generous, that may mean "appeal it all the way to the Supreme Court"

which is how Politico has interpreted it:

"This is, in the opinion of many, an unprecedented judicial overreach....This ruling makes us look weak," the president declared before appearing to vow to take the issue to the Supreme Court. "This is a watered-down version of the first one....I think we should go back to the first one and go all the way which is what I wanted to do in the first place."

Though I'm sure they wouldn't try that before getting Gorsuch or a similar RWer appointed - I think the current SC would have a guaranteed 4 votes to reject his original ban, which is good enough to uphold a rejection in the 8 member court.
