Trump's 'catch me if you can' approach to the Supreme Court's birthright-citizenship case is not a good look for the judiciary

The Supreme Court heard arguments in the birthright-citizenship case at the Supreme Court on Thursday .

Frida Ghitis: The Trump Administration has unleashed a torrent of unconstitutional executive orders and other questionable legal actions.

She says the Administration is trying to stop lower-court judges from issuing “nationwide injunctions” She says it's a problem for Administrations of both parties, both Democrats and Republicans , but the first months of the second Trump Administration have made that pace look leisurely.

Justice Elena Kagan : Citizenship is, by definition, a national issue.

It makes little sense to have a patchwork nation in which children born in one state are citizens.

No Justice, not even the most conservative, expressed a hint of sympathy for eliminating it.

By the end of the session, it seemed as though the Justices might be thinking that they had blundered by getting sucked into the injunction debate.
