Trump folds like a cheap suit on his pledge to have the citizenship question on the census.

Don't shoot your mouth off, Mr. Trump, if you won't go through with it.

I understand; Trump can't afford to tell the courts to go to hell - something he would be well within his rights to do in this instance - because they would use that to impeach him, and the RINO's in the Senate (like Mittens) would vote to convict him. But we are doing the Republic a great disservice by allowing the courts to interject themselves where they have no authority. And this is clearly a place hwere they have authority; the Constitution mandates the President do the census, not Congress or the Superem Court. HE has final say in it. SCOTUS should shut the hell up about it.

The President had every right to ignore that ruling; it was a Separation of Powers issue.

But if he was not going to violate the court order he should not have said he might. Do or do not; there is no try.
