1. Whatever the eventual outcome is, it would have been worse under any candidate preferred by Andrew McCarthy and the NR Never Trump crowd (Jeb!, Little Marco et al.)
2. Trump has long indicated his willingness to legalize the DACA people. We don’t have to like it but this has long been his view.
3. The devil will be in the details such as
(a) what will disqualify a DACA person from participating? The Dems and RINOs will want to allow drunk drivers and domestic abusers and almost every one of them to stay.
(b) What kind of benefits will DACA people be entitled to: affirmative action in hiring or education? in-state tuition? “Earned Income Tax Credit” (welfare)? Public housing? Voting? Being counted in the census?
(c) Will they be allowed to use their status (now or upon becoming citizens) to bring their relatives to the USA?
(d) What real comes out of this on the enforcement side?
4. If it is a bad deal, Trump can and should veto it. If it is a great deal, well, opinions are going to vary but I will be in wait-and-see mode.
5. Trusting Schumer, Pelosi, The Turtle or Jug Ears would be a huge mistake.
6. If this smells like amnesty and The Wall does not get built, the President will not be reelected.
Don't we ever get over the notion that we should be happy because it could have been worse? We could be happy if it actually got better too couldn't we?
