That was a Federal Judge..9th Circuit, i think....so what happens when someone refuses to obey a court order?
usually the Marshall take them into custody for contempt of court.
but when the President dis-obeys a court order....hmmmm.
Ya know, if any President did that, it would be Trump, esp. with Bannon in his ear. They have been dropping hints of Presidential power, and even this week's sudden "extreme vetting" and deportations is over the line.

I think we are gonna be tested, and hard.
