Pssssssssst This happened yesterday -US appeals court suspends Trump travel ban proceedings

http://www.dw.com/en/us-appeals-court-suspends-trump-travel-ban-proceedings/a-37593031
<snip>
A US appeals court has put on hold a decision over whether to rehear President Donald Trump's travel ban on individuals from seven Muslim-majority countries.

The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals said it would put that process on hold pending further developments.

The Trump administration said in court documents on Thursday it wants a pause in the legal fight over its ban so it can issue a replacement ban.

"I will not back down from defending our country. I got elected on defense of our country," said Trump.

The appeals court had asked the Trump administration and the states of Washington and Minnesota to file arguments on whether a larger panel should rehear the case.

Trump decision to drop defense of ban and instead come up with a revised ban did get lost in the shuffle yesterday

What Christie is thinking deliberately putting his own name out there in headlines next to the words "lunch" and "meatloaf", is beyond me though.

Talk about bad PR sense.

Or maybe he's so desperate for airtime this is all he can do.
