"Would." The court will find out this week, and it will have nothing to do with "left" or "right".
Listening to the minutes last night of the judges deliberating with the government lawyers, the judges said based on previous words from Trump specifically naming Muslims in the ban was the reason for the stopping the executive order. The government lawyers said that the verbiage of Muslims is not found in the executive order. Therefore the Muslims are not shut out or discriminated. Further, they added, of the countries selected these only comprised 17% of the Muslim population.
