DACA is an executive order and can be rescinded by the office that implemented it. It's one of the inherent problems with executive orders.
Had this been legislation there would be a case for the courts to stop Trump or if it was clearly unconstitutional as was the Muslim ban. But this wasn't a law: it was an executive order.
I don't get what is so hard to understand about Trump deporting illegals who have a criminal record or have been convicted of a crime or spent time in jail. I think it is perfectly reasonable. And that was already going on. They would deport permanent residents convicted of crimes, for crying out loud. Lol. Completely agree with that. Dreamers are not going anywhere.
But of course lefties will complain and protest no matter what Trump does, be it good or bad. Not surprised.
@ 7 As sad as the situation is....dreamers ARE criminals ( through no fault of their own of course.)
They are in the US illegally. That is a crime. Our immigration laws have been on the books for a very long time.
I know of no other countries in the world that allow illegal immigrants to stay without consequence. (Mexico will jail you and anyone who aided you.) There is no other country that has "open borders" where people can come and go as they please without documentation.
If I were a dreamer, I would've been working pretty damn hard and pretty damn quick to correct my immigration status or citizenship. Especially when I knew Trump was campaigning.
