Or, alternatively, if this is actually legal.

Congress holds the powers of the purse and this is an executive order by a president a few weeks away from midterm elections. This is going to be litigated.

I agree. In fact, I don't think the President can forgive student debt loan - that is a job for Congress[0]

My comment is not concerned with legality - I’ll leave that to congress and the courts. I’m merely pointing out the obfuscation of eligibility requirements.
