Trump Says He Would Let Dreamers' Stay. But He Once Tried to Gut the Program.
Briefly

President-elect Trump’s conflicting actions towards Dreamers illustrate a complex stance on immigration, particularly as he acknowledges the challenges these individuals face, specifically noting their lack of ties to the countries they were born in.
Trump’s statement, 'We have to do something about the Dreamers because these are people that have been brought here at a very young age,' essentially underscores the moral and ethical obligations associated with their predicament, which contrasts sharply with his previous attempts to dismantle their protections.
While he expressed a willingness to work with Democrats on a solution, Trump paradoxically blamed them for failing to enact a law to protect Dreamers, despite it being his own administration's actions that threatened them.
His surprising comment regarding President Biden's failure to address legislation aimed at protecting Dreamers reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of the processes involved, masking his own administration’s struggles during his presidency.
