text: Such a massive editorial failure in doing some basic background research here by the G&M.  Further, it's fanned the flames of the usual "OMG look what Trump did crowd".
  
  The lawyer who helped Obama draft this order came out siding with Trump and explained the situation well.  Obama was pushing for the same thing - him and Trump have the same outlook on this problem (Globe - let that sink in to your editorial staff).
  
  Long story short, the part of this order (it was not legislation hence the call to Congress for action) dealing with parents had already been struck down and the Democratic lawyers agreed this part was next and didn't hold to court scrutiny.  Trump even gave a grace period for legislation to be completed.  
  
  What a bunch of screaming from the usual crowd on here, including the editors.
