Liberal lawmakers and pundits promptly erupted into hysterics Tuesday after the Supreme Court delivered a major victory to President Donald Trump with a ruling that his so-called travel ban was constitutional after all.
Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) warned Tuesday, for example, on “MSNBC Live” that the court ruled “that the president can pretty much … do whatever he wants to discriminate against groups of people and say it’s for national security.”
“I say, who is going to be next? Is the president going to issue an executive order against Mexicans?” Hirono continued. “Is he going to issue executive orders against people coming from Honduras, Guatemala? What’s next?”
The 5-4 decision found that both the Constitution and congressional legislation authorized Trump’s ability to protect U.S. national security interests by prohibiting travel temporarily from seven countries posing heightened security threats. But because most of the seven countries include Muslim-majority populations, many liberals labeled Trump’s executive order a “Muslim ban”.........(SNIP)
