An executive order is not law it’s a memo. It’s a creative writing exercise, a cheap photo-op, it’s as worthless as a degree as Trump University unless congress passes legislation in support of it.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.
