Jones Beach was, at its inception circa 1930, a little model of a totalitarian state.
Legions of state police were stationed out there to make sure you didn’t bring your dog or play games involving balls. Guards in towers peered through binoculars at the parking lots to make sure you didn’t change into a bathing suit in your car. In the ‘50s, Moses explained why.

Judge Chutkan's opinion is now actually out, and Trump did indeed lose this round of his quest for an injunction.
Trump, the judge writes at the end of her 39 page opinion, "is unlikely to succeed on the merits of his claims or suffer irreparable harm, and...a balance of the equities and public interest bear against granting his requested relief."
From the public interest section of the opinion:
