IMPT: POTUS continues to say he wants SCOTUS to end DACA — to do his dirty work really — because he thinks that the lives of 800k Dreamers are leverage over the Democrats. This is absolutely wrong, and people should be clear what is really going on when his admin floats “DACA.”

Back from Camp David, via pool:

"lt's going to be a steel border and that's going to give us
great strength."

He didn't directly answer a question about whether he'd
talked to Schumer or Pelosi today: "We've been in touch
with a lot of people and i informed my folks to say that
we'll build a steel barrier steel that it will be made out of
steel, that it will be less obtrusive and stronger."

On DACA: "| would consider DACA but | think it'd be
complicated. |'d rather have the Supreme Court rule and
then work with the Democrats on DACA. | want to help
with DACA... Rather than doing something with DACA now
|'d rather work with Democrats. Let the Supreme Court
rule first."

"We have a crisis at the border of drugs of human beings
being trafficked all over the world... and criminals and
gang members coming through."

On unpaid federal workers: ''They will make an adjustment
because they want to see the border taken care of."

On border problems: "Because of the strength of our
economy, the stronger it is, it's probably the greatest
economy we've ever had, and because of that it's
happening even more so we have to stop it."
