If a single judge in a single jurisdiction can unilaterally halt the orders of a duly elected President, then what we have is not democracy but an unaccountable judicial oligarchy, a form of soft tyranny cloaked in legalese.
Congress should pass legislation requiring any TRO or injunction to be ruled unanimously on by three randomly selected judges from across the country. No more shopping for conflicted judges!
A good start to fixing this ridiculous, laugh inducing, ( for the judges) and infuriating usurption of Presidential authority. I still favor telling them to go jump. It has about as much actual judicial and Constitutional authority as these rulings.

I agree with Mr. Ross and would add that any TRO should have an expedited appeal process.
