The only change to the status quo was to reduce the protections for asylees. It put a high daily number on when that reduced protection would kick in, to be sure - but the only actual effect was negative for asylees.
You've explained that umpteen times to him. He refused to listen last year, and he's still refusing even though the evidence is in his face. But I do appreciate the replies he elicits from you. I learn a lot, even if he doesn't.
Were it not for the Felon, that law would be on the books, and the current POTUS (whomever it would have been) would have the tools. BHM said he voted for change, but the opportunity for change (at least on immigration) happened last year. That would have been a big change. Pretty sure the Felon administration isn't going to get anything passed, at least in part because he doesn't work that way (i.e. he leads by edict). Which is probably why he wants the military involved...an added resource at the border, because they have no other resources available. Which, I believe, makes posse comitatus come into play (i.e. he can't use the military at the border, at least not on the US side...I'm sure Mexico would have something to say if we deployed on their side, too).
