The legal fight over the president s travel ban. The courts decision could come at any time, but as we heard from the president this morning, he thinks the decision san eais easy one. Any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. Okay. So you can suspend. You can put restrictions. You can do whatever you want. This is for the security of the country. So there it is, folks. Its as plain as you can have it. I didnt and i was a good student. I understand things. I comprehend very well. Okay . Better than i think almost anybody, and i want to tell you, i listen to a bunch of stuff last night on television that was disgraceful. It was disgraceful. Because what i just read to you is what we have. It just cant be written any plainer or better. I dont ever want to call a court biassed, so i wont call it biassed.
