george washington university law professor jonathan turley joins me from washington. thank you for coming on the program. and let me begin with this. we know at this moment the aclu is in a u.s. district court in brooklyn tonight seeking a nationwide stay, trying to block this. what are the chances you that think they'll be successful? >> well, it's very, very difficult to prevail on a stay of that kind. you have to show a likelihood of prevailing on the merits. the court precedent actually supports president trump. i don't like this rule. i don't support it. i think it's a real mistake. but whether it is unlawful, whether it's unconstitutional is a different question. the courts have historically granted presidents a great deal of deference. this country has excluded people in the past on these types of orders. it has often been directed toward, for example, asians and chinese individuals. these were terrible periods during our country. but those actions were not found to be unconstitutional. even president obama argued to the court just last year that executive powe
