He does that and the “immigration problems” in the US are solved the moment he finishes the, P, in Trump.
It’d be a dream come true if he made it retroactive about 18 years. Be an absolute fantasy come true if he made it retroactive October 3, 1993.
Interestingly, the Left/MSM/Liberals/Democrats never had any issues with the last president using EOs to try and push his agenda, as we all know.
And now.....And it will set off another stand-off with the courts, as Trump’s power to do this through executive action is debatable to say the least.
Someone correct me, if needed, but didn’t SCOTUS just affirm that the Executive Branch has control over such things?
Yes, they did:
The President has it within his statutory and constitutional authority to suspend all grants of asylum, should he choose to do so. This was reaffirmed by the SCOTUS in June of this year, in the case, Trump v. Hawaii, No. 17-965 in the Supreme Court of the United States.
“8USC 1182(f) and 1185(a) By its terms, §1182(f) exudes deference to the President in every clause. It entrusts to the President the decisions whether and when to suspend entry, whose entry to suspend, for how long, and on what conditions. It thus vests the President with “ample power” to impose entry restrictions in addition to those elsewhere enumerated in the INA.”
