Agreed... It was chitty when Obama did it... It's nice to finally have a president with enough class to show some restraint...

I would consider daca to fall under this category... Done in a slightly different order, but same action...

Right... As I said, a slightly different order...

Obama made the executive action on daca knowing the legislative branch wouldn't pass it and the judicial branch wouldn't uphold it...

Obama himself said as much... But his time as president was up and he didn't have to deal with the consequences...

There's more than one way to get your tainted meat past the metal detector...

My phone is dying but I'll look for it in a bit... Obama is on record stating he knew daca would not survive the courts...

So we know all the citizenship data, but we don't know how many people?

Is this liberal logic?
