Congress is at fault here.
In their hatred of anything 'Obama', Congress can't seem to get it's head out of it's
and vote for any meaningful legislation.If you're on the Terrorist watch list? Go buy some guns, Congress doesn't allow agencies to talk to each other. This isn't a bug, it's a feature.
Want to know gun-shooting stats? Congress will not allow appropriate agencies to simply assemble data on gun deaths - it's literally written into law that said agencies cannot compile data on gun-violence.
Want the ATF to do their job?
Too bad, Congress won't allocate funds and allow the ATF to fulfill it's mandate.
Vote each and every one of these slobs out of a job.

The Past Six Presidents Have All Used The Executive Power To Block Certain Classes Of Immigrants
Section 212(friend) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952
“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”
President Barack Obama has used the authority this statute provides six times in his tenure.
In July 2011, Obama barred the entry of “anyone under a UN travel ban; anyone who violates any of 29 executive orders regarding transactions with terrorists, those who undermine the democratic process in specific countries, or transnational criminal organizations.”
In April of 2012, he barred the entry of anyone “facilitating computer or network disruption that could assist in or enable serious human rights abuses by or on behalf of the government of Iran and Syria; anyone who have sold or provided goods, services, or technology to Iran or Syria likely to be used for such purposes; or to have materially assisted anyone whose property or interests are described.”
Former President George W.Bush used this authority six times as well during his tenure, barred for entry included members of the Mugabe government in Zimbabwe and the Lukashenka government in Belarus.
The authority of the president to bar certain classes of aliens was used six times by former President Bill Clinton.
President George H.W Bushonly used this executive authority once .
President Ronald Reagan used this executive authority five times while in office.
So can someone explain to me why Trump is being called a racist for his call to slow down the influx of immigrants ?

Federal Agency Approves New, Higher Fence Surrounding White House
Federal Agency Approves New, Higher Fence Surrounding White House
The federal Commission of Fine Arts on Thursday voted to approve an 11-foot-7-inch barrier surrounding the White House facility after a presentation by the U.S. Secret Service and the National Park Service.
The new fence would replace the current 7-foot barrier.

Obama immigration plan blocked by 4-4 tie at Supreme Court
Looks like Obama won't be getting his immigration plan through before the end of his term.

Maybe he can do an executive order, and say that the Supreme Court's decision doesn't count on this case.

I fully expect him to ignore the ruling and dare the court to do anything about it. By the time it would be settled in court he would be long gone.

President Obama said most illegal immigrants still won’t be deported, even after the Supreme Court’s tie ruling Thursday upheld an injunction on his broader deportation amnesty.

Perhaps, but he won't go down that road.

No they aren't. Obama just changed the way they were counted to inflate the numbers.

All right dude.
Which President has deported more 'illegals' in the last thirty years?
Do you know the answer?
I do.
(It's not about changing qualifications - it's about hard numbers).
Which President has deported more 'illegals' in our recent history?
Please try and spin this.

Counting people stopped at the border is not deportations. Except by Obama's accounting. Bush deported more than Obama if you apply the same standards of measurement.
A closer examination shows that immigrants living illegally in most of the continental U.S. are less likely to be deported today than before Obama came to office, according to immigration data.
Expulsions of people who are settled and working in the United States have fallen steadily since his first year in office, and are down more than 40% since 2009.
On the other side of the ledger, the number of people deported at or near the border has gone up — primarily as a result of changing who gets counted in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency's deportation statistics.
The vast majority of those border crossers would not have been treated as formal deportations under most previous administrations. If all removals were tallied, the total sent back to Mexico each year would have been far higher under those previous administrations than it is now.
High deportation figures are misleading
