Supreme Court gives the travel ban a fair hearing?

Washington Post:
Conservative justices appear to back Trump’s authority for travel ban

The Supreme Court's conservatives questioned how President Trump’s order barring travelers from certain majority-Muslim countries had exceeded his lawful authority, given that Congress had granted the executive branch broad latitude to bar people’s entry to the United States.
Democrat forum shopping for judges and appellate courts with an animus toward the President finally reached the end game and it looks like Trump finally got a fair hearing.  The lower courts had to ignore the Congressional authority given the President and made up a new requirement using pretzel logic referring back to statements made during the campaign.
