President Donald Trump declared a new immigration policy that defies a federal judge’s ruling in two angry tweets sent on Saturday night.

“Migrants at the Southern Border will not be allowed into the United States until their claims are individually approved in court,” he wrote. “We only will allow those who come into our Country legally. Other than that our very strong policy is Catch and Detain. No “Releasing” into the U.S… ..All will stay in Mexico. If for any reason it becomes necessary, we will CLOSE our Southern Border. There is no way that the United States will, after decades of abuse, put up with this costly and dangerous situation anymore!”

Trump’s new policy appears to contradict a ruling by a federal judge in California who ruled earlier this week that some of the restrictions Trump planned to implement were illegal.

2. Yeah, right, he'll close the border

Capitalist fat-cat captains of induatry would lead the march on the WH.

This whacko needs treatment.

[sakabatou]

4. Contempt of court?

[bluestarone]

35. FOR SURE!!

[dalton99a]

5. He'll attack the judge next

[RobinA]

16. Yelling At Judges

is my favorite thing about Trump. It ensures they won’t like him. They’re supposed to be impartial, but they are people too. People who are not used to having their opinions questioned and derided. The more he pisses off the judiciary the better.

[Grasswire2]

6. But that's going to end the profits from detention of immigrants!

I wonder if he has thought this through. All his cronies and lobbyists and politicians making money off detaining brown people will have their supply dry up. And it has been SOOOO lucrative!

[RainCaster]

11. He is such a great negotiator, I am sure he thought it through

[llmart]

22. Including the DeVos family.

[Grasswire2]

36. yes. nt

[Doodley]

7. Expect his approval rating to go up. Assholes support assholes. Bigots support bigots.

[louis c]

8. Doodley, I have greater faith than that.

I know there are racists in this country. and I'll admit that, as it proved in 2016, there are far more racists than I thought. but I still only estimate them at 35%. I know Trump got more votes than that, but racist or not, the top 10% of wage earners in this country support that no good piece of shit and too many progressives sat out that god damn election to make the percentage seem higher.

I think a lot of people have learned their lessen, as evidenced by the 2018 mid-terms. We need to right off that 35% and realize that these racist, bigoted images, statements and tweets will be found to be despicable by a vast majority of Americans.

[Doodley]

15. Nearly 44% of Americans approve of Trump, based on an average of all recent polling.

I agree they are not all racists, but I see no evidence that anyone has learned anything.

[SWBTATTReg]

23. I don't believe this high of an approval number, I don't care where's it is from. NT

[bearsfootball516]

28. If that's the mindset you hold, it's no different than how Trump thinks.

Purposely refusing to believe facts that you don’t like just because you don’t like them isn’t the way to go.

Harness that anger toward him and use it to start building a force to beat him in 2020 through canvassing, getting involved locally, etc.

But saying “nope, the numbers are fake news” is not an effective solution.

[SWBTATTReg]

30. No, the poll in ? has had issues w/ its reliability in the past...that's all I'm saying and you ...

compare me to rump w/ a disagreement over valid poll numbers? That's real nice for a fellow DUer.

[bearsfootball516]

34. FiveThirtyEight makes adjustments to level out Rasmussen's bias.

Even with its impact significantly downgraded, he’s still at 43 percent with all the polls averaged.

[Pluvious]

31. I too have struggled to understand these purported stats...

I'm reminded how we had reelected Bush.
I had not thought it possible...

But,

If you add up all the...
- racists, bigots and their ilk
- low info voters
- submissive types doing what they're told
- traditionalists that can't vote Democratic
- Fox Network only viewers
- emotional voters
- etc.

It's sad, but nearly half our voting public is not in sync with the values and perspectives of our Democratic Oasis here at DU.

[Doodley]

32. Democratic oasis. I like that.

[SWBTATTReg]

33. Yes indeed, it is a very good description/word to use! nt

[louis c]

27. Rasmussen is bullshit.

you take that out of the average, it's 40%.

[Marie Marie]

9. Why would we suddenly expect this criminal to obey the law?

When is somebody, anybody, going to take this fool down?

[djacq]

10. Me thinks the Grand Poobah is projecting again.

[JudyM]

12. Could this be a warm up act to defying bigger judicial decisons coming down the pike?

[KY_EnviroGuy]

14. No way this was written by tRump.

It's not well written but way to fancy for the Dotard.

I'll bet it was dictated by fascist Steven Miller to tRump's Twitter minions.......

[Ferrets are Cool]

17. We have a madman as pResident of America. nt

[INdemo]

18. Right out of Hitler's playbook

Defy the courts if they don't agree with your agenda.

[safeinOhio]

19. So much for that Oath

to defend and uphold the Constitution.

[MFM008]

21. Lame duck status

Approaching in a matter of weeks.

[SWBTATTReg]

24. Oh, so we are now accepting policy from rump via tweets in this country now? Something is wrong ...

about this. What's the story on this?

[duforsure]

25. He'll ignore the judicial branch,

Just like he'll ignore the House, then the Senate. That's what corrupt criminal politicians who think they are dictators do. He'll use loopholes to bypass them all with to get absolute power, unless he's stopped. He'll continue to get much worse.

[HopeAgain]

26. When fear and hate is all you got... eom

[beachbum bob]

29. the federal courts will soon need to imprison trump admin officials for contempt of court...

there is no "review" for contempt charges, you are taken into custody and put in a jail cell

[defacto7]

37. Well folks, it looks like we have an emperor.

if he gets away with shit like this.
