The Trump administration expects a victory from the conservative-leaning Supreme Court on the status of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

Experts expect the president will have the authority to end protections afforded dreamers, but the consensus is he will not do so right away.

Per Politico:

But no side expects President Donald Trump will immediately end the program if the ruling goes in his favor. Instead, Trump is expected to slowly wind down the program and use that as leverage to try and strike a broader immigration deal with Democrats this summer, according to six people familiar with the situation. But Democrats, already suspicious of any deals with Trump, want to wait to see if their party wins back the White House and Senate in November.

That means the issue is poised to break through in an election year that has been dominated by the coronavirus pandemic and, now, protests over police brutality. Trump’s team plans to blame Democrats for not being willing to negotiate, hoping the message will help the president appeal to Hispanic voters. Democrats, and their likely presidential nominee Joe Biden, are running on a pledge to permanently enshrine the program that has protected Dreamers, known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.

“What happens has significant risks and opportunities for both parties,” said Ali Noorani, executive director of the National Immigration Forum, an immigrant advocacy group. “Who can blame the other side for deporting DACA recipients is what it comes down to.”

Already, Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, has floated including DACA as part of a broader immigration package after the Supreme Court ruling, according to two of the people familiar with the conversations. And some Senate offices, both Republicans and Democrats, have started talking about what they could ask for in exchange for legal status for Dreamers, according to those familiar with the conversations.
