Obama gauging backlash from 'illegal amnesty' move

Obama is checking what the backlash will be if he unilaterally grants amnesty to practically 11 million illegals notwithstanding the popular opposition & the jobless conditions in the USA.  He's feeling around, sounding off and getting set for yet another doubling down in his gamble to transform the USA into a welfare state to usher more Socialism & government control. 

He is courting the Churches & American sympathies by using children as props - just like in Sandy Hook.  And he knows that his window of opportunity exists only in the next 5 months.  With his recent defeats in the courts, will he in his reckless fashion double down on a gamble that could cause a violent social upheaval?

What is going into this man's head?  If he grants amnesty, then chances are the Senate goes GOP & all his work gets repealled plus the WH goes GOP in 2016.  If he does not grant amnesty, then his stunt and gimmick, his melodrama and last chance to pave the way for Socialism is all but gone.

Or has he learned that all his lawless activities will slowly but surely be undone by case law and repeal? Regardless of the path he takes, his cause is lost.
