The possibility of DACA having any chance of revival sank further away. In a recent tweet Trump declared no DACA deal.
This could be seen as the final nail in the coffin as Trump was willing at one stage to make DACA a reality.
The whole idea was based on getting the spending for his border wall. That eventually fell through destroying any leverage Democrats may have had.
Trump didn’t take kindly to not getting the funding he needed and made it clear DACA was over.
He also lamented the issue with immigrants from Mexico crossing into the U.S. He said that Mexico wasn’t doing anything about the situation.
Immigrants
The situation wasn’t helped by the fact that immigrants were using the train system to hitch rides to reach America. There were even names for some of the trains used in such a deadly practice.
“Mexico is doing very little, if not NOTHING, at stopping people from flowing into Mexico through their Southern Border, and then into the U.S. They laugh at our dumb immigration laws. They must stop the big drug and people flows, or I will stop their cash cow, NAFTA. NEED WALL!” Trump tweeted.
Trump believed all the people trying to get into America wanted to take advantage of a DACA deal.
“These big flows of people are all trying to take advantage of DACA. They want in on the act!” Trump said in a tweet.
