I’m concerned about this too. Roberts is showing that he’s way more left than he previously let on and Gorsuch is being a bit of a wild card. Not to mention a decision against DACA will likely shake a hornets nest and fuel more protests. In a perfect world - and one I sincerely hope happens - Trump wins re-election, Ginsburg recognizes that she can’t continue having staffers/clerks write her opinions for her and gracefully retires rather than dies in the middle of arguments, Trump selects someone that would make Scalia or Thomas look moderate, and the majority is strengthened. THEN... this case is brought up.
They will probably let to stay. Trump should ignore them though. It's an EO. The supreme court can dictate that an EO is not legal and must be rescinded, it cannot dictate that an EO must remain and be enforced by an administration which seeks to rescind it.
Departing that many people seems a little harsh. If these individuals are all contributing members of society (have jobs, pay taxes, etc.) I think a reform or a new program that would lawfully incorporate their status to society would be a healthy economical solution.
Why? Because there are more of them? Each one of them would be impacted in exactly the same manner as if I were to illegally reside in another country and get deported. It doesn't get worse for me just because some other people also get deported.

They aren't. Even if they were what kind of logic is that? I can get away with violating laws if I have a job?

There are waiting lists of many years for even skilled migrants to get into the USA. The economy doesn't need them, I'd be surprised if they actually generated any net benefit.
It's the place of neither the court nor the White House to enact a program like this
Just disband the Congress if they can't be bothered to do their job
Then we can have a system in which the executive issues orders and the court decides if they are constitutional or not. Which is all this is
