During a recent appearance on Fox News host Sean Hannity's program, billionaire businessman and outspoken proponent of immigration reform Donald Trump was asked how fast he would "turn things around" if he were elected to the Oval Office.
In response, Trump vowed to immediately "get rid" of the executive orders and actions taken by President Barack Obama in relation to immigration laws.
"One of the first things I'm going to do is get rid of the executive order that Obama says, 'Just come on in through our southern border,'" Trump told Hannity.
"Now, we've had some pretty good luck in court, which is interesting because that's unusual, and they've done a good job on that," Trump added. "But I would end the court case. I will knock out that executive order so fast your head will spin."
The court case that Trump referred to is likely the lawsuit filed by more than half of the states, led by Texas, in opposition to Obama's executive action that has been viewed by many as a de facto amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants in the country.
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court ruling that issued a temporary injunction halting Obama's amnesty plans for the time being.
If Donald Trump wins the presidency and does indeed "knock out" Obama's executive orders related to immigration and amnesty for illegals, there would no longer be a need to further pursue the lawsuit designed to prevent Obama from unilaterally granting legal status to illegal immigrants.
Maybe then the government could get back to enforcing the law instead of trying to find ways around it.

GO TRUMP!!!
PING!
Bwahahahahahaahahahah!
Cruz is going to be the best VP in a century. And Trey Gowdy would be a stellar pick for AG.
L
GO TRUMP!
Purge the military from the PC loons as well. Bring back the real Generals Obama had resign. Cut the fed budget 10% and make the ‘new hires’ go first.
Repeal ObamaCare.
Then go after the RINOs who opposed Trump’s candidacy.
Go after Amazon (who owns WaPo) and make them and GE pay taxes for a change.
Punish enemies.
Reward friends.
Restore the nation!!!!
So hard it will speed up the rotation of the planet.
Less undocumented DemocRats!
Trump needs to start asking Obama and the democrats if they have jobs for all these immigrants and refugees.
If not, does he have a plan to get them off our welfare programs. Over 90% of the middle eastern immigrants in the USA are on welfare. Can we afford that?
Have a simultaneous nation wide party.
...Trey Gowdy would be a stellar pick for AG...
However, even with Republican majorities, Gowdy is still sitting and spinning, and going NOWHERE with his investigations.
Let the DiC and his beard slink off into the nether regions from whence they came...
Good for Trump
Dittos to that. A lot of folks continue to be fooled by this Gowdy kid though.
Allen West- Defense
Let me be the first to say...bet Obambi would like it...
GO TRUMP!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!
He’s used to it. In fact...he likes it.
Just a thought: tonight on the news there was a discussion on how some of the military personnel have decided to rethink the Berdahl incident and move for full courtmarshal. Trumps influence and comment about strong military and generals may be influential already
“Trumps influence and comment about strong military and generals may be influential already”
Agree with your comments. Trump has the world’s ears right now, and Berdahl needs a court-martial.
"One of the first things I'm going to do is get rid of the executive order that Obama says: 'Just come on in through our southern border,'" Trump told Hannity.
