Trump said, 'See you in court' and the internet replied, 'What?'

WASHINGTON, DC - FEBRUARY 7: (AFP OUT) U.S. President Donald Trump listens as he meets with county sheriffs during a listening session in the Roosevelt Room of the White House on February 7, 2017 in Washington, DC. The Trump administration will return to court Tuesday to argue it has broad authority over national security and to demand reinstatement of a travel ban on seven Muslim-majority countries that stranded refugees and triggered protests.

President Donald Trump lost a court battle on Thursday regarding his travel ban on seven Muslim-majority nations.

After the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a block on the ban, the president tweeted an all-caps "SEE YOU IN COURT."

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

An odd statement, given the decision was made by one court and then upheld by another. But, you know, whatever.

"See you in court" is kind of a strange response to one's defeats in two consecutive courts.
