So, during the Obama administration, you seemed to feel differently:

The Fifth Circuit upheld a nationwide injunction initially issued by 
Judge Andrew Hanen of the Southern District of Texas against the federal 
government's implementation of DAPA in United States v. Texas.

Judge Reed O'Connor of the Northern District of Texas issued a 
nationwide injunction to prevent the Obama administration from issuing 
its guidance that Title IX required institutions to allocate bathroom 
accessibility based on gender identity rather than biological sex. When 
the Department of Justice requested that Judge O'Connor narrow relief to 
the plaintiff states, he declined to do so.

Judge Sam R. Cummings of the Northern District of Texas issued a 
nationwide injunction to prevent the Obama Administration from issuing a 
rule that would require employers to disclose certain activities with 
third parties related to dissuading labor unions.

And Judge Virginia A. Phillips of the Central District of California 
held in 2010 that the federal government's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" 
policy was unconstitutional and permanently enjoined the Secretary of 
Defense from enforcing it.
