trump did not have fun at the part of the hearing he attended. It is not good form to leave a court proceeding before such proceeding is over. trump may be unhappy that the conservatives on SCOTUS were NOT buying Sauer's arguments

President Donald Trump reportedly left a Supreme Court hearing early after conservative Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, and John Roberts seemed skeptical of ending birthright citizenship.

Shortly following Solicitor General John Sauer's arguments against birthright citizenship, Trump was seen leaving the court, according to NBC News and a pool report.

During oral arguments, Roberts suggested that the U.S. Constitution protected the notion of birthright citizenship.

"We're in a new world where 8 billion people are one plane ride away from having a child who's a US citizen," Sauer argued.

"It's a new world. It's the same Constitution," Roberts said.

1. Now I hope the gangster tells us all what he's been holding over their heads

Gifts? Vacations? Free rent? Whatever it is, let's hear it. CLEAR THE AIR! Then let the resignations begin.

2. TACO Don the Con

3. I predict Trump will lose 6-3 or 7-2.

Might only be Thomas and Alito supporting Trump's position.

4. He is such a spoiled brat.

The walls of the WH will probably be covered in ketchup later today.

5. Not acting like someone expecting a win.

[Prairie Gates]

6. Trump has at best an average intellect and no particular curiosity in legal argument

He was bored.

7. Added to his SOTU Grievance List tonight

8. I dont watch these things and would not pretend to understand

But dont the judges always pick away at the arguments for both sides?

I mean are they questioning the other side now?

[Ms. Toad]

13. Yes, but there are subtleties.

Sometimes what looks like picking away can also be asking helping questions. And sometimes after being picked at attorneys are so primed for argument that they respond to the helping questions as if it was another attack.

Not a Supreme Court justice, but I play one in Moot Court.

9. I wonder if he filled his diaper

Hearing his solicitor general misfire.

[malaise]

10. Bwaaaaaah

I bet he wanted to speak and they told him NO!

And Sauer. Is clueless

[Ferrets are Cool]

11. So, his intimidation tactics didn't seem to be working??

14. He felt a tantrum building and had to vent his id on TS nt

15. He'll say he got called away for some top secret clown business. But, he was

about to present the bigly-est, strongest, most devastating argument in front of the court. So strong, they would have tears in their eyes and say "sir, we've had so many great argumenters and only the biggest cases, and you made the strongest argument ever heard by the court."
