During a hearing Thursday in Seattle, U.S. District Judge John Coughenour issued a temporary restraining order preventing Trump from carrying out his order aimed at ending birthright citizenship.

“This is a blatantly unconstitutional order,” Coughenour said in court, according to The Associated Press.

Everyone knew this is headed to the USSC.

Felon47 alone cannot amend the Constitution. No such power rests in the executive branch. Way over reaching.

You drama queen weaklings amuse me, the simple obvious explanations are never acceptable to you twats are they. No, we must instead dream up hysterical conspiracy fantasies as Trump has taught you all to do.

What a bunch of weasels

Just like the fantasies that trump is a Nazi, fascist, dictator, war monger, and a threat to democracy... okay

Its not amending the Constitution, its re-interpreting the 14th Amendment as to who can make a US citizen, to eliminate the "Cottage Industry" of China and Russia from making US citizens with birth tourism.

US issues new rules restricting travel by pregnant foreigners, fearing the use of ‘birth tourism’​

Trump administration takes aim at pregnant travelers with new "birth tourism" rule

The new State Department rule says it doesn't believe visiting the U.S. "for the primary purpose of obtaining U.S. citizenship for a child, by giving birth in the [U.S.], ... is a legitimate activity for pleasure or of a recreational nature."

Maybe the answer is no pregnant women allowed into the US?

The judge that called it unconstitutional was appointed by Reagan.....

It’s pretty straight forward if you read the constitution. Guarantee Yrump hasn’t

I believe that Trump fully well anticipated that some knee jerk lib judge would try to label the EO “unconstitutional.”

And I also believe it will soon end up in the SCOTUS.

Although there are arguments to be made on both sides of the matter, and the ultimate determination isn’t assured, it is certainly a very real possibility that “birthright citizenship” for babies born here to illegal aliens is going to get shut down.

It is unconstitutional based on the historic reading of the amendment.

If it has been incorrectly applied all these years, then-

We have learned that settled law doesn't mean what some folks think that it means.

What does that mean? Reagan was the second worst President this nation has ever elected.

Not unexpected. It will probably go to the Supreme Court.

The court will say that it's unconstitutional. We don't change the Constitution, we only uphold it. An amendment is what you're seeking. We don't do those here either.

Funny post -

• The temporary restraining order is in effect for 14 days, the judge said.

Actually, as is so often the sad case, you’re flatly wrong.

Merely reading the words of the 14th Amendment, you chucklehead, isn’t the same as understanding it. You clearly don’t understand it.

This is an unconstitutional order that should get should should really not even be heard by the Supreme court. But if they end it, Trumps children will have to become naturalized.

maybe they should be deported. Father broke the law so many times.

Properly interpreting it is the key.

And of course that’s where you libturds get lost.

Obama didn't have the authority to grant amnesty either, but he did.

No one needs to change the Constitution the Amendment has been applied incorrectly all of these years without substantive challenge.

Take it to the supreme court...

Felon 0311 is befuddled about the Constitution.

That's the thing about liberal judges. They're overwhelmingly dipshits when it comes to immigration.

Not at all true. He was among the very top prior presidents.
