Supreme court issues blow to Trump!

Post by BigDave »

So sayeth MSDNC

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politi ... se-n851186

Headline: "In blow to Trump, Supreme Court won’t hear appeal of DACA ruling"

Then, down in the fifth paragraph: "The court's denial was expected, because the justices rarely accept appeals asking them to bypass the lower courts."

Uh huh. So basically, the appeal is going up the chain where eventually the Supreme Court will overturn the LWNJ ninth circuit, in what should be 9-0 ruling, but will probably be 7-2 (Ginsburg and Sotomayor dissenting).

I saw the same misleading headline on another source this morning, but most people won't read the actual words in the article :cry:

Good guess. Ended up being 5-4.

It's almost as if President Law and Order keeps doing things that are against the law.

Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.
