2. I care. I have heard him say it is discriminatory and wonder if he has ever said it was
unconstitutional.

If he hasn't it said it, it could be by design. If he said it was unconstitutional he would have hamstrung his admin in appealing the ruling you speak of.

4. I didn't think he did. I caught valerie jarret on the situation room with wolfie
and he said the president said it was "unconstitutional", but she sort of wormed her way around it.
