Had the President NOT signed the law and instead, acknowledging that Congress voted a veto-proof majority but that in good conscience he could not sign it and it was all the doing of Congress, then he would win.
Now, when they come thru Mexico, by the hundreds of thousands and invade the border, all they’re going to say is that he signed the bill and he’s responsible.
He can’t put a wall up fast enough to stop what is on the way. I don’t care if Superman is building it at the speed of sound. They’re going to come from all over the world. And since they let the world know that you cannot be deported if you have a kid with you, WE ARE DONE!!!!
...you cannot be deported if you have a kid with you,...

You (the illegal picking up the child)will be interviewed and background checked by ICE. Name, address, employment history, criminal record down to misdemeanors. IF someone braves that within the 7 month period covered by this spending authorization, then there is no prohibition against ICE coming to your home, place of work (if you can provide proof of one gained without identity theft or identity fraud) and arresting you there. Then you must enroll the child in a school and provide records, again risking arrest.
This places all the burden on the illegal living in the shadows and puts them in danger of deportation.
This is an appropriation bill. It cannot and does not change or create law. It is limited in time. It is limited in scope. Ex: it limits ICE spending for certain items during the 7 month period it exists. Well, ICE has multiple pots of funds that are fungible within the agency, as do all agencies, including the Executive.
The BS in the bill is all political. It is all designed to get your blood pressure up and cause you to lose trust in POTUS and hopefully, never vote again. Yay! Win for the commies if you don’t vote again. Way to go!
Read the signing statement.

Stop listening to backstabbers.
Trump and his team vetted this bill completely and checked it against the existing law, including the Constitution. The proof of that is in the language of the signing statement. The signing statement is a double bird flipped at Congress/media by Trump. He is on solid ground on all aspects. He knows it. They now know he knows it.
We’re getting a wall. Illegal immigration is being choked and will dwindle to nothing. The census question on citizenship has precedent. It was a question thru the 50s, maybe later. We win that, which is on solid Constitutional and legal precedent foundation and we cost the commies congressional districts and Electoral College votes.
A spending bill has no standing in any court on the question of Constitutionality. Judicial challenges cannot take place PRIOR to the actual SPENDING of monies. The appropriated funds are contractually obligated by Congressional vote and Executive signature.
We win.
