“If the Democrats don’t work constructively with the GOP to produce a real piece of legislation, the deadline of an expiring DACA program will force them into line.”
Except that Trump has said he will reconsider his DACA decision if congress does nothing. In saying that he pretty much lost his leverage.
that’s a fact...
yet it depends on what he thinks he can do without congress that wouldn’t be unconstitutional.
he’s already being sued both ways. (not sure how either side can win)
SCOTUS already killed DAPA(which is DACA for parents) and an extension of DACA with their 4-4 decision.
Pres. Trump then EO’d DAPA out of existence. Then froze DACA for 6 months.
SCOTUS is scheduled to take up DACA again in October with a full court.
By the time 6 months is over, this already could be ancient history, with Congress and the POTUS not having had to do anything.
