DACA EO was ruled unconstutional
The EO isnt constitutional
He's been one for over a year now with over 50% approval-higher than O was at this point

Even more confusing is DACA EO was ruled unconstutional.
So now we got a judge saying let's enforce an unconstutional EO by saying it's unconstutional to do away with the unconstutional rule.
Man these judges are messed up!

Since law enforcement (and immigration too, actually) falls under the authority of the Executive branch, with what mechanism would the Judicial branch enforce such a ruling?
The US Constitution.
Regardless of the authority the Executive branch has, it does not have the power to subvert the constitutional protections we have.
The fact that some judges like to legislate from the bench doesn't automagically make rulings like this binding, and it in no way obligates the Executive branch to give rulings like this any weight whatsoever.
We've had activist judges trying to pull crap like this for way too long, and any judge that attempts to do so should be thrown out on their ass.
That's just empty platitudes that have been regurgitated many times over the years.
Disagree with a ruling...it's "activist judges legislating from the bench".
Blah blah.
The EO isnt constitutional so they have no right to protection.
Anyone and everyone in this country has constitutional protection of due process.
