[Hoot Gibson]

SCOTUS asking "What were you thinking 6 months ago?" would be exponentially more stupid than a reporter asking it.

Have you ever read a transcript of the Supreme Court's oral arguments? They won't ask what anybody was thinking but they will ask what actions had already been taken and why the normal legislative procedure could not used to address the border wall issue. Their questions are usually short and to the point.

A response of "We did not have the votes to defeat a filibuster," will not get the Trump administration very far. That is a pretty lame excuse for a president whose party controlled Congress for two full years.
