seeing in court, he is saying, no, we are not giving any ground and this is trump s personality and his strategy. we are going to counterpunch. everybody is saying write a new order. nobody with a visa is included in and narrow it. not only the prudent thing, tim, but if they are so concerned about an attack, the safe thing for good of the united states of america is drafted up, sign it this weekend, or on monday get it lawyered up and if we are in danger, then we can actually have an executive order in place on monday that will do the same thing, that will work effectively. if it s important enough to do, do it well and do the proper process and make sure the lawyers check it out. narrow it to the 90-day ban on the entrae from those seven countries and take care of what he wants to do. but it looks like he wants to fight over his original war.
