Donald Trump is running into resistance from a liberal federal judge from Washington state. So what else is new?!! This is probably going to be the pattern for at least the next two years, or so. Trump will attack the liberal agenda of the Obama Administration, and states with predominantly liberal populations will challenge him, primarily in the federal court system. The liberals are not going to roll over and die, just because they lost the election. They may not be able to permanently block Trump's policies, but they will try to stall their implementation through the federal court system, as long as possible, as often as they can. Perhaps the 2018 Congressional elections will diminish this resistance, if the Republicans can maintain their control of Congress. If they can't, we will be in for more chaos until 2020!
Now we have a federal judge in Washington state blocking Trump's executive order to ban travel from various nations with large Muslim populations, and with a history of supporting terrorism. This may not be a nice policy for law-abiding people traveling from these nations, but how do you determine who is law-abiding, and who is not, until it's too late? The evil of the terrorists who come from these countries far outweighs the inconvenience born by the law-abiding people. The Obama Administration bent over backwards.to preserve the convenience of the law-abiding people from these countries, and the terrorists traveled easily around the world. It may be necessary to restrict some freedoms, in order to protect the greater safety interests of society as a whole. This is a sad reality of the times, but it may be a necessary adjustment that we all have to face. The war against terrorism is the overwhelming priority in international relations for the foreseeable future, whether we like it, or not.
It's time that liberals face reality, even though they don;t like it!
