(20,924 posts)He has the aptitude, language skills, and comprehension of that of a 4th grader. (No offense to 4th graders.)
He knows now his EO is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Just as his EO about who can get a Ballot by Mail.

(27,048 posts)He wants to turn the system upside down and like going to war, he doesn’t understand the ramifications. The birthright issue was settled over 100 years ago but he doesn’t like it.

(180,183 posts)trump did not have fun at the part of the hearing he attended. It is not good form to leave a court proceeding before such proceeding is over. trump may be unhappy that the conservatives on SCOTUS were NOT buying Sauer's arguments
Trump bolts from Supreme Court early as conservative justices skeptical of his arguments

Shortly following Solicitor General John Sauer's arguments against birthright citizenship, Trump was seen leaving the court, according to NBC News and a pool report.
During oral arguments, Roberts suggested that the U.S. Constitution protected the notion of birthright citizenship.
"We're in a new world where 8 billion people are one plane ride away from having a child who's a US citizen," Sauer argued.
"It's a new world. It's the same Constitution," Roberts said.

(180,183 posts)trump is too stupid to understand the concepts being discussed. trump could understand that his attorney was NOT doing a good job and that the Justices were not buying what his attorney was trying to sell
Donald Trump's unprecedented appearance at the Supreme Court encompassed both a request that his seat be moved and the reported inability of the president to hold still while lawyers made their case before the nation's highest court.

“Could you see him from your vantage point? If so, what was he like?” MS NOW’s Lemire asked.
“He was six feet in front of me... he was literally right in front of me,” he recalled. “I was one row behind him, the Secret Service and then the president, so I could watch him entirely throughout the argument. Some of the press reports also got it wrong. Some of the press reports said that he left after the government had its case; the president sat through at least 10 to 15 minutes of our argument.”
“I could see him fidgeting in the chair. I literally could see him, he was literally in my line of vision,” he added. “And when our legal director, Cecillia Wang, made her opening statements, and then when she began to answer questions from the justices, you could see he started getting restless. His shoulders slumped a little bit.”
“I think he was there, clearly to intimidate the justices,” he added. “When they first had him, they sat him on the very end of the front row. And then the Commerce Secretary, Mr. [Howard] Lutnick got up and told the security guards that Mr. Trump would like to be seated more centrally in the courtroom. So they moved him literally right in front of us.”
“And then it was clear that he was endeavoring to put his thumb on the scale. He was endeavoring to glower at the justices to kind of intimidate them, almost defy them to rule against him,” he continued. “And what was remarkable, and this really is a testament that our system of checks and balances is working, that it's a coequal branch of government. Donald Trump is a guest in the Supreme Court. This is Chief Justice Roberts’ house. And there was not a mention, they did not miss a beat when he walked in, the courtroom got quiet. When he walked out, no one missed a beat.”
