11. It means a lot

If judges were rubber stamping Trump's lawlessness there would be no hope of the people rising up and the military choosing not to obey illegal orders. We would have no standing if the courts said we were wrong, it would just be our opinion (and there are a lot of opinions out there).

If it is clear Trump is violating court orders we can publicly declare him to be a dictator acting against the constitution.
And we have grounds for civil disobedience, if not a revolution.

These judges are doing their jobs at considerable personal risk. We need to make it worth their sacrifice.
