Well for as long as I can remember the Repubs have been on their high horse about immigration….and this election was NO different…even the mighty Trump had lots to say about people coming to this country….most of it was the typical rubbish and campaign bullshit…and question now is after 20Jan17 will he, Trump, do something or will it be later down the political line?  Or will he leave the high lifting to others?

We know that Trump has had his rhetoric about Obamacare…the repeal and replace chant that has been around since about 2010….but what about DACA?

DACA?  Anyone scratching their head about now?

Let me help those of the slower persuasion…….DACA is an acronym for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals…..got it now?

The question is can this somehow be repealed and replaced?

Ike Brannon and Lyle Albright have written about it in Bill Kristol’s Weekly Standard…..(a conservative mag that has all the GOPer loyal reading)……let me say here and now that I do NOT subscribe to much written in this site….but some of it is well thought out and bears scrutiny.

The issue of illegal immigration was a central plank in the campaign of President-elect Donald Trump and played no small role in getting him elected to the White House. His populist, “America First” position spoke to the economic anxieties of many Americans, and it could be argued that he has a mandate to make immigration enforcement a key priority in the first year of his presidency.

There are different ways to address immigration, however, and the path Trump chooses will go a long way towards setting the tone for his administration, as well as in defining him as a leader. Handling immigration enforcement in the right way is an opportunity for him to show that he actually cares about solving problems, as opposed to simply scoring political points and managing public perception. And a big part of this opportunity involves how he intends to deal with President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

Is this the action that will be pursued by the Trump admin?  Or does he have his own plan that he will find more to his liking?

There has been talk even promises about immigration reform for years now and little has been accomplished….is this the admin to actually do something on this issue?

Once again….we will have to wait for the days and years after 20Jan17 to see what direction he will choose….but rest assured that I will visit this subject later down the line. (you have been warned…tee hee)
