you're wrong and let me explain why.
a judge rules with the force of laws. this is because they work within the judicial branch. these laws are written, voted, and accepted as truth. laws are practically stricken in stone.
executive orders are orders given to how the government should operate, not how they will operate. without laws to back the EO the order is worth as much as an Arby's receipt. they are not royal proclamations because America does not have a king.
Trump and his bastards have broken several hundred if not thousands of laws all under the guise of executive privilege which has ZERO legal standing in court. and before you bring scotus into this, they don't make the laws they merely interpret them and how they should be interpreted. it's up to the lower courts and judges to apply or ignore laws as they have been interpreted.
so to recap: executive orders are not laws, they cannot be interpreted by scotus and thus can be ignored or even challenged by the lower courts.
as for what the judges can do, they can hold him in contempt, arrest him, and place him in custody for not complying with the law.
hopefully you've learned something and can be less ignorant about a subject you seem so passionate about.
Hi, imma let you finish but just real quick. Laws are laws only if they are enforced. Alrite, take care fella.
Who's going to be doing the arresting after he's held in contempt?
the US Marshals.
before you even say it,
get a new message, troll. there's still Americans that are willing to protect the constitution.
We'll see. Congress and the majority of the Executive Branch seem to be goose stepping right along with Trump. The Supreme Court is iffy.
As for the accusation of trolling, you can fuck off. That was a serious question. On the off chance you haven't been paying attention, there's serious concern that the loyalty of most of our government may be to Trump and not to the Constitution.
I'm just going to mark this comment for reference next week.
The judge can say whatever he wants. Do you think the secret service will allow anyone to arrest the President?
sure they won't, then the marshals will arrest them for impediment the law.
then we'll truly and publicly be in a constitutional crisis.
no one is above the law, NO ONE.
Have you been paying attention at all for the last 5 years?
Do you think anyone that matters will do anything to stop him?
In theory. In practice, it seems that certain people are, in fact, above the law.
It needs to be made so.
Call your representatives and literally yell at them for not doing more on Trump.
