Dems stuck to hope and change during Obama’s campaigns and it worked. They of course learned nothing from success.
He is making a pragmatic decision that any reasonable lawyer would make.
DOJ policy is to drop a case like this. If he ignored policy then he would be fired by February before the case would even proceed. So no matter what he does, the case is dead and at least he got to write some words down. Basically the same as the three resonable justices on SCOTUS who have no power to do anything beyond write dissenting opinions that might matter sometime in the future.
It sucks, but Republicans have completed their coup from within the US government.
