According to Politico, Apparently this morning Donald Trump saw MSNBC's Morning Joe, where a post from a blog called Lawfare criticizing the Appeals Court's ruling was mentioned. Then Trump tweeted this:
LAWFARE: "Remarkably, in the entire opinion, the panel did not bother even to cite this (the) statute." A disgraceful decision!

But guess what?
According to Politico, the author of the post agrees with the Appeals Court's decision!
The author of the Lawfare post, Benjamin Wittes, a senior fellow in governance studies at Brookings and the co-founder of the blog, later Friday morning tweeted a link to the post with a note that he backs the court's ruling.
"You decide whether the POTUS is quoting me in context. Here's the article. For the record, I support the decision," he writes.
Sheesh... And this is the guy with the nuclear codes?
