Unfortunately, there are now a couple bills floating around the Senate that would give all DACA members a path to citizenship. Those bills were filed during this congress. I suspect at least one of these bills will reach the floor within the next several months, if not sooner. Should that happen and it passes in the Senate and House, I further suspect Trump will sign it.

President Trump has already said he desires to solve the DACA issue through legislation. Let's not forget he also has said he will make everybody happy and he has heart. I'd say his intentions are fairly clear on the DACA issue. That's not to say he won't flip again should the pressure get to be overwhelming from his base supporters. Although, I'd say he seems fairly well planted on the issue for now.

Immediately prior to or after Trump's election, someone, some special interest groups, or several of Trump's advisors have convinced him to take a different direction on DACA. It's a shame the amnesty supporters had more influence over Trump than did some of his most loyal supporters like Sessions and Bannon.

Hopefully I'm wrong on this, but I forsee a hot and heavy amnesty battle taking shape over DACA that will probably reveal itsef this summer. Stay tuned.
Conjecture is quite the political art form these days.

Why aren't you conjecturing that the legislation Trump is waiting on is a bill that prohibits the granting of deferred action and work permits to illegal aliens by the Executive Branch?
