It didn't. Good thing that resignation was a possibility in this case then huh? BTW, it was an option in Nazi Germany too, one several men availed themselves of.

Are you going to defend Trump firing the judges who order stays on his illegal decrees? You going to trot out, "If the President does it is not illegal?" Nixon ran that one up the flagpole. The people that counted didn't salute.
I don't believe you can fire judges, so yes, that would be problematic. You finally hit on a good point though, it's the judges actual job to determine if something is illegal. Thank you for helping me make my point
