President Donald Trump ’s executive order was blocked by a federal judge in Seattle on Thursday .

The order is aimed at rolling back birthright citizenship for children born in the country to parents who are not legal permanent residents.

Constitutional lawyers say the administration's legal arguments against the order fall flat.

Experts say the ultimate strategy is likely to push the case through the courts.

The Supreme Court is in an interesting spot because it has to define where it stands in relation to Donald Trump’s revolution.
