Trump appears to be increasingly worried about the lack of a DACA fix. Obviously he's trying to blame Democrats, but the fact that he keeps Tweeting about it suggests he and the GOP are worried that it will be an(other) issue they lose votes over in the November mid-terms. I think he thought he was being clever ending Obama's temporary DACA solution, but it's backfired and now the mess is on his desk.
Some of his recent Tweets:
Feb 16:
Cannot believe how BADLY DACA recipients have been treated by the Democrats...totally abandoned! Republicans are still working hard.
Feb 17:
Just like they donāt want to solve the DACA problem, why didnāt the Democrats pass gun control legislation when they had both the House & Senate during the Obama Administration. Because they didnāt want to, and now they just talk!
Feb 24:
Dems are no longer talking DACA! āOut of sight, out of mind,ā they say. DACA beneficiaries should not be happy. Nancy Pelosi truly doesnāt care about them. Republicans stand ready to make a deal!
Mar 5:
Itās March 5th and the Democrats are nowhere to be found on DACA. Gave them 6 months, they just donāt care. Where are they? We are ready to make a deal!
Mar 6:
Total inaction on DACA by Dems. Where are you? A deal can be made!
Federal Judge in Maryland has just ruled that āPresident Trump has the right to end DACA.ā President Obama had 8 years to fix this problem, and didnāt. I am waiting for the Dems, they are running for the hills!
Mar 19:
The Democrats do not want to help DACA. Would be so easy to make a deal!
Mar 21:
Democrats refused to take care of DACA. Would have been so easy, but they just didnāt care. I had to fight for Military and start of Wall.
Mar 23:
DACA was abandoned by the Democrats. Very unfair to them! Would have been tied to desperately needed Wall.
I am considering a VETO of the Omnibus Spending Bill based on the fact that the 800,000 plus DACA recipients have been totally abandoned by the Democrats (not even mentioned in Bill) and the BORDER WALL, which is desperately needed for our National Defense, is not fully funded.
