Haven't read the ruling, but from the Bloomberg story it seems the 9th circuit seemed to argue from a position of political idealism and not from the law. Maybe it's just buried in the decision but the Executive has long enjoyed full-control of the nation's immigration policies. In fact, Arizona was slapped down for trying to enforce immigrations at the state level that the federal was refusing to enforce under President Obama. It seems like this is just another highly politicized decision and most likely, Trump will simply re-do the order or recruit congress to enact new laws.
