Trump has again raised a very important immigration issue that will ultimately be decided by the SCt...hopefully a more conservative SCt. And, that court with two of his nominees now sitting on the court...may just have been the “hard work” needed to get something done. And, as you say, this may ultimately be a good thing. But, I still shudder thinking about egomaniacs with phones and pens. I still have faith in the genius of separation of powers.
