It may be time for the president — and we don’t say this lightly — to supersede these rogue federal judges and simply exercise the authority the Constitution grants him, and let the chips fall where they may. The Supreme Court could reign in these districts courts and force them to refrain from issuing unconstitutional nationwide...
