Critics of one political party or another have been sounding the imminent 'death knell' of America since Thomas Jefferson became POTUS against Alexander Hamilton's wishes and machinations to prevent it.
Personally, I look at the immigration directive as an effort to stir Congress to act upon something which falls under their purview...and a matter they've been shilly-shallying around with for decades. I hope it works.
Because Congress does retain the authority to 'counter' such directives from a POTUS or to 'pink slip' the POTUS if necessary, I look upon my vote for my Congress-critters as being more important to America than my vote for POTUS.
I'll wait and see.
And so it goes...
