Reply to comment by formenonly in Supreme Court leaves in place Title 42 border policy for now by monstertruckbackflip

Genuine question: How many people felt the exact same way when the Supreme Court said that Trump couldn't end DACA, which was itself an executive policy they said he couldn't end?

You could argue that even if you agreed with the outcome, it set a precedent for more meddling. But that’s actually an invalid argument because the Supreme Court doesn’t care about precedent and is just seeing how much it can get away with regardless.

yeah but that ruling was mostly because Trump and his admin are incompetent boobs and f8cked up procedure not because of any attempt to protect DACA. if they had done the right leg work, DACA would be gone

Well that decision also served conservative interests. Businesses wouldn’t lose workers, GOP politicians didn’t have to pass any reforms and Trump didn’t have to deport a ton of Dreamers, which would have been terrible press. I’m sure Trump was elated he didn’t have to carry out that campaign promise.
