Our So-Called President Has No Checks Nor Balance. Only Bannon

The ban was then appealed and the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld Judge Robart’s ruling until Monday, when both parties return to argue their positions.

As BBC reported,

The Trump administration’s request to reinstate a travel ban was blocked by a federal judge on Friday. The late Saturday night ruling means the travel ban will remain suspended until the full case has been heard. 

The  two states bringing the lawsuit argued that the travel ban, affecting people from seven mainly-Muslim countries, was unconstitutional.

In its appeal, the Justice Department said Judge James Robart had overreached by “second guessing” the president on a national security matter.

It also argued that only the president could decide who can enter or stay in the US.

These are grave times when courts are being bullied to abandon their role of checks and balances of the executive power on “second guessing” grounds. America has elected a man who is unfit to be president. Britain has known unfit, mad kings. Other countries have been forced to settle with clinically unbalanced people too. But none had the misfortune of an unfit president surrounded by equally unqualified advisers, such as a daughter, a son-in-law and a Bannon.
