2. 先repeal， 再replace
现在Trump威胁的是走方案2。如果真这么干，温和派的共和党参议员就立刻日子非常难

如果同意，那么回到2008状态，下一步replace保守派等得起。温和派连1的replace方

The Chinese Exclusion Act was a United States federal law signed by Chester
A. Arthur on May 8, 1882, following revisions made in 1880 to the Burlingame
Treaty of 1868. Those revisions allowed the U.S. to suspend Chinese
immigration, a ban that was intended to last 10 years. This law was repealed
