      The ones that can vote are all here legally. Of course some will be caught up in the dragnet anyway, but nobody told them that in so many words. They think it’ll only affect others.

          Yes, that sounds bad. But how else should we decide who to deport? How could we decide who is a “bad immigrant”? Maybe they get citizen status and then we realized they are also a criminal? Should they then also be deported? A US citizen? Maybe yes!

          I only see two solutions:

          1. Directly deport every foreigner, no matter if anyone thinks they are good or bad
          2. Deport everyone who ever got sentenced because of anything. Independent of their citizen status. This might include a lot of people that are thought of as American, but almost nobody is originally from here. And this way we clearly get rid of all the bad people.

          (/s, just to be sure)
