The only thing I can think of is Trump made this announcement so the Dems would block it in court.... once again, to say the Dems block him on everything.

First, the original effort was leaked in advance by whatshisname (since resigned). When it was disclosed, President Trump pivoted and gave congress two weeks to resolve the border crisis through legislation. President Trump did this so that down the road, he can use executive orders with the reason being that congress failed to act.

Pelosi didn't lift a finger for the entire period. So when the media makes a fuss, and I'm sure they'll end up with footage or photos (real or fake) of illegals getting deported, the President Trump will lay it at the feet of Pelosi and the democrats in the House.

The President got screwed by Ryan for two years, and now he has to play catch-up..and he's playing chess, not checkers.

Again, why haven’t we been doing this all along? What’s worse, whey haven’t we been raiding and putting some fines on businesses? Why just threaten to shut the border down and not do it? And wasn’t Mexico supposed to up its game or we were going to impose tariffs? Why just sign a ‘money magnate’ bill and at not really do anything else?
