Rachel Abrams: 最高法院的裁决对特朗普总统的政策执行是一项重大胜利，但也对法院的角色和总统的权力限制具有重大影响。最高法院实际上剥夺了下级法院的巨大权力，使得总统可以更大程度地推行其政策议程。 Adam Liptak: 最高法院的裁决限制了下级法院阻止总统推进其议程的能力，对特朗普总统来说是一次重大胜利。特朗普政府寻求最高法院裁决全国性禁令是否合理，因为他们认为在出生公民权问题上胜算不大。法院的裁决将在30天后生效，这意味着挑战者将争先恐后地采取行动，可能会有法院再次在全国范围内叫停该行政令。但即使出生公民权问题得到解决，推翻全国性禁令的问题仍然存在，这使得此案的意义远大于出生公民权本身。特朗普总统对最高法院非常满意，总统声称自己拥有前所未有的权力，而最高法院不仅没有阻止他，反而普遍地打开了大门。
