IL Drumpf's "I'll see you in court."

Excellent insight by my daughter: He has said that to every contractor and worker he's stiffed in the past, knowing that they'll run out of money by pursuing litigation against him, to the point that they'll drop it. This is the federal government. It doesn't run out of money as he appeals. He's the world's biggest moron to think that his SOP will work for him now that he's president.

he is the federal government, with its vast financial resources (ours, actually). He can spend as much of the government's money (our money) as he wants defending his bullshit immigration EO. The money needed to sue Trump (the federal government) has to come from, in this case, the States of Washington and Minnesota, the ACLU, etc., which don't have as much money as the federal government. So nothing really has changed, except that Trump now has even more money to throw around.
