United States President Donald Trump on February 6 asserted that if something happens people should blame the judge and the court system for blocking the immigration order. In a major blow to Donald Trump, the US Court rejected the appeal filed by the Trump administration to reinstate the travel ban that earlier blocked by a Seattle Judge.

Expressing disbelief over the ruling Trump said, “Just cannot believe a judge would put our country in such peril. If something happens blame him and court system. People pouring in. Bad!” adding that he had instructed the security officials to keep a check on people entering the country.

I have instructed Homeland Security to check people coming into our country VERY CAREFULLY. The courts are making the job very difficult!

Donald Trump on February 5 lashed out at the Federal Judge who blocked his travel ban from seven Muslim-majority nations. Terming it as “terrible decision”, Trump said, “when a country is no longer able to say who can, and who cannot, come in & out, especially for reasons of safety &.security – big trouble.”

Additionally, the Trump administration had filed an appeal against the ruling and asserted that they will overcome the judge’s decision on the travel ban. Trump has filed an appeal in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and have urged them to set aside ruling given by the Federal James Robart, a George W. Bush appointee.

Trump asserted that the judge was only opening up the “country to potential terrorists and others that do not have our best interests at heart” adding that it was making the “bad people very happy”.

In what came a massive shock to the people across the country, a day after Donald Trump signed an executive order to build a wall across the US-Mexico border, he signed another order on January 28 to keep the “radical Islamists” out of the US. The order prevented people from Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia or Yemen from entering the country.
