    Constitutionally I don't think a judge has any authority to over rule a president. The president has the authority to run the executive branch as he sees fit according to the constitution. Lincoln even put judges in jail and suspended the constitution for a short time. Also, A higher judge can over rule the lower judge in the court of appeals.
    Trump doesn't need to waste his time on this. He just won't call on this guy for comments any more. The guy can sit in the chair and that's all.

    A judge can overrule the president if what the president does or tries to do is Unconstitutional.

    You missed the point. Hundreds of lower court judges. Any one can overrule the President?

    I'd like to know how some cases/complaints get to a Judge almost overnight while the system is "supposedly" overloaded and backed up with meaningful cases waiting, that is a load of BS,.....my only guess is it's due to a crooked judicial system and crooked-assed Judges [:(!]

    Trump should take a lesson from Andrew Jackson. When the US Supreme Court ruled against him, he did what he wanted because he had an army, and the court didn't have one.

    Not sure on my military group numbers, but 134 men in 2005.

    Quoth the Wiki -

    The Pontifical Swiss Guard (Italian: Guardia Svizzera Pontificia) was formed in 1506 by Pope Julius II. The unit was formed as the personal bodyguard of the Pope. At various points in its history the Swiss Guard has seen active service, but following the 1870 abolition of the Papal States it returned to its chief role as a bodyguard, with a limited ceremonial role, and survived into the period of the Vatican City State, as a de facto Vatican military unit from 1929.

    The Swiss Guard continues to fulfil the bodyguard function,[4] and provides security at the Apostolic Palace and the Papal Palace of Castel Gandolfo. In cooperation with the Corps of Gendarmerie of Vatican City it also controls access to the entrances to the city-state. Since the attempted assassination of the Pope in 1981 the Swiss Guard has undertaken more rigorous training, and a far more active security role, alongside its traditional ceremonial duties.

    Since the early twentieth century the Guard has returned to its original practice of recruiting only young, unmarried, Swiss nationals. As of 2005, the Guard had 134 members. All recruits complete basic military training with the Swiss Army before transferring to the Vatican,[5] and must be at least 174 cm (5 ft 8.5 in) in height.[6] Members are armed with small arms for practical purposes, and the traditional Halberd (also called the Swiss voulge), for ceremonial functions.

    Although the Pontifical Swiss Guard's first duty is the service of the Pope, during periods of "sede vacante" (when the office of pope is vacant), the Swiss Guard instead guards the College of Cardinals, as they meet to elect a new Bishop of Rome.
