6. He is the President

He is the President. How can a group of law enforcement officials stop him from doing something he wants done? I understand he is trying to claim the law enforcement officials were opposed to the idea of a weeks long or months long delay and that influenced his decision to move forward with an immediate ban. However, he is still the President. It is his decision whether or not to push for certain ideas and to sign certain executive orders. The buck is supposed to stop with the President.
