Trump controls the executive and (largely) judicial branches which, of course, any DACA solution will have to rely on.
I only half-jokingly expect if anything like this "compromise" is agreed to, the second after Trump signs the bill he will turn to his advisors and demand that the DACA provisions not be executed and line up a team of lawyers to fight it in the courts.
This is why I, and many others, say the only proper response to this offer is a firm, loud, and public FU.
