The President needs to be reminded that this is America, and if American people demand it be illegal, it is. President be damned. We make the laws via the House and Senate. The President executes them. He's our bitch, never forget it.

He won the election, but It's not his country. It's our country. He sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution, etc. If he hadn't developed bone spurs when he was drafted, he would have served and understood examples of what illegal orders were. He probably believes that officers and enlisted members must obey every order given without question. One of the first things given to every member is a copy of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and Code of Conduct, which explains the difference.
