Protecting Trump’s enemies from prosecution just reinforces the idea of politics as retribution. Instead, Democrats should be defending his most vulnerable targets.

You think he is going to do that? I highly doubt it
Even if he did, trump will get the supreme court to give him the go-ahead anyways.
It wouldn’t even be possible if he did want to.
Given how government works at breakneck glacial speed and they would never be able to process everyone in time. Maybe they could handle some of the ones with cases, but not anywhere near everyone. They would have to make contact, start the process, process, and distribute paperwork on more than 11 million people. It would take them months just to make a broken website to gather information for submissions.
“He could just declare it and anyone who came here before a given date would be protected.” How do you establish when someone got here? Supporting documents? They will be able to process that over the next few years, which they would be deported long before they could be processed.
It would take an act of Congress to be able to do the legal maneuvers necessary to do what would be needed.
