Settling now is the smart thing to do from a fiscal standpoint. Trump's immigration policies, driven by a known white supremacist who shouldn't have been anywhere near the West Wing, screwed us. We're going to have to pay for it. Better to pay less now than much more later.
It's absolutely stupid from a political standpoint. Just kick the can down the road until it's someone else's problem. Don't screw over the next Democrat trying to get into office by being responsible for cleaning up Trump's mistake. The American people aren't going to be rational about it. Hell, if it goes to trial it won't be anyone but Trump's fault because a judge will be ordering the payment due to Trump's decision. It'll be easier to avoid that political bullet.
