I think Trump is pulling a fast one with DACA

[FLPanhandle]

He makes noise about rescinding it, drags out the decision, and will declare he will keep it.

Makes himself look like a reasonable person by not doing something he wasn't going to do in the first place.

This is a con.

[Xipe Totec]

1. Two words - Joe Arpaio. nt

[Wounded Bear]

2. Yeah, he'll attempt to look 'reasonable'...

I hope he doesn't gut DACA, of course, but it sounds a little bit like his $1 mill donation to Harvey relief. I'll believe it when I see it, and I'll still suspect ulterior motives.

[Wounded Bear]

3. Oh, and another thing...

Trump has an easy out on this. Congress is talking it up, he could easily just punt this over to Lyin' Ryan.

[GoCubsGo]

4. No. He's just a sadist, who loves toying with people and making the suffer.

He could very well change his mind again. And, again. And, again.

[CozyMystery]

5. I agree.

[MFM008]

6. Exactly.

He is a POS.

[leftstreet]

10. +1 The more provocative he is, the more attention he gets

[SeattleVet]

11. ...and the more provocative it is, the more it keeps real news out of the cycle.

Every time he pulls this shit I have to ask myself what *other* news is about to break that he wants to create a distraction from.

What else are others in his regime doing 'under the RADAR' while we all concentrate on his most recent foolishness?

Words to live by:
Don't watch the monkey; watch the organ grinder!

[workinclasszero]

12. You are right

He loves toying with the helpless then destroying them at the last second.

Which is what he will do to the Dreamers I bet.

[Control-Z]

7. Of course it is.

He's not "making his decision". That's a done deal (though, I have no idea what it is). The demented fuck is enjoying his game of cat and mouse with the poor dreamers. I can just picture him - a mouse clenched between his teeth, evil smile curled up around it, drool rolling down his chins.

The only question is, with Bannon and Gorka gone, at whose feet will he drop the mouse when he's done playing with it.

[Wellstone ruled]

8. The real answer will be announced on Faux News by monday.

The Guy is a Heartless cold Ass Twit.

[JimGinPA]

9. Yeah...

tRump is playing three dimensional Hungry Hungry Hippos.

[BannonsLiver]

13. I find it hard to disagree

But just playing devil's advocate, I think it's possible he ends daca to appease his followers. It looks like Harvey could put a crimp in his wall plans so he may need to pivot. Daca going away would be like catnip to the deplorables and when he can't get the wall done he can say "well at least I got rid of the daca".
