While people are busy screaming about how mean and racist the Trump administration is for entertaining the notion of revoking DACA, what many are missing is the fact that Obama set these young people up to fail.
DACA applicants trusted *Obama*. He lied to them that he would be able to get away with his unconstitutional usurpation of power. https://t.co/VrcN09Ld2D

Obama lied, he made them believe he could save them knowing the odds of DACA being the ultimate law of the land were not good. He had to know eventually someone would get elected who understood this ‘law’ was not Constitutional.
Let’s not forget that DACA was Obama’s cynical political attempt to energize special interests before 2012 campaign; Gave them false hope

And set them up to fail. Yes.
Obama's aides saw Hispanic registration was below 2008 & panicked, pushing him to ignore his own earlier assertion that DACA wld be illegal https://t.co/2JtNFjTtYz

Sorta like how Obama magically evolved on gay marriage in 2012; it was always about votes and elections, not the people.

And then blame the mean ol’ Republicans for adhering to the law.
Now we'll get a posturing scoldy statemrnt from Obama about who we are when he's the guy who gave Trump the power to kill this.
