Trump ‘doesn’t realize’ he ‘just handed’ Dems a superweapon: expert

President Donald Trump scored a major victory Thursday after the Supreme Court cleared the way for his administration to potentially expedite the deportation of 1.3 million migrants, but the win could very well end up handing Democrats the key to winning the midterms, one security expert argued Friday.

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 Thursday to allow the Trump administration to end what’s known as Temporary Protected Status, a designation that allows migrants fleeing dangerous countries to work in the United States legally. The ruling immediately puts more than 350,000 Haitian and Syrian migrants at risk of deportation, and threatens the status of all 1.3 million people currently protected under the program.
