How'd ya like to be one of Trump's lawyers right now? My guess is that Federal judges are a pretty tight knit group and Trump's zing is not going to sit very well with any of them.

It's absolutely mind blowing how quickly this dude and his advisers are crashing and burning.
There's a more frightening aspect to that tweet. Trump doesn't acknowledge the judiciary branch of government. He actually thinks that the law is his to do his bidding with. It's horrifying that the president thinks he knows more than any single judge that disagrees with him. Why else would he publicly sh*t on him?

What happens when the supreme court doesn't do what he says? Was his pick for SCOTUS purely because he knows he'll do whatever Trump says? I'm convinced it is. Trump wouldn't make a pick unless he was guaranteed things in return. This is the problem with wanting "a business man" in the white house. It isn't what the POTUS can do for you, it's what does the POTUS get in return?
