Per the Constitution every prez takes the oath of office which is shown below. Has Trump fulfilled his oath or ridiculed/ignored it? Why?

"I solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of the President if the United States and will to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States".

We're now well into the Trump reign.  So far so good or geez Louise puhleez what a travesty! Why?

    I often thought about this, in the light of the fact that courts throughout the United States declared DT's travel ban on Muslims to be illegal and unconstitutional. He blamed bad judges, but surely, it is the bad President? He swore to uphold the constitution, and the travel ban breaks it. It is up to the courts to determine, which they have.
