“The vast majority of American adults believe the Trump administration must comply with federal court orders, though the president’s strongest supporters are split over the issue,” according to a new NBC News Decision Desk Poll.

“In the poll, 81% of U.S. adults say that if a federal court rules that an administration action is illegal, then the administration has to follow its ruling, while 19% say the administration can ignore the ruling and continue its action.”
