170615163929-scotus-with-president-trump---2-medium-plus-169.jpg Ever since Donald Trump signed the first executive order banning people from seven countries from entering the U.S. on January 27, it's been nothing but trouble.

Within 24 hours of the EO being signed, judges in several states blocked the so-called "travel ban" from going into effect. Trump submitted a second executive order on March 6 taking the number of affected countries to six (Iraq was excluded from the 2nd ban). It was, again, immediately stopped by a lawsuit in Hawaii. Trump went on to lose a series of appeals in court.

On Monday, the Supreme Court actually handed Trump a win on the travel ban -- albeit not a complete one.
