She getting deported to?

To Columbia.

I don't think Trump's regime is going to work that hard at deporting everyone to the right country. She might end up in Mexico or even Rwanda.

Assuming they even know the definition of deported. They don't seem to understand the definition of words. I still think Trump thinks asylum means people from insane asylums.

But this is my fear. They just start stripping citizenship from people who have been here legally to arbitrarily hit their quota numbers. Brown and got a bit of an accent? Naturalized in the last couple of years? Hope you're not here on January 20th. That day has a very ominous feel to it to me.

I say this as a man married into a family of Salvadoreños. People aren't treating this with the gravity it deserves.

Read about this in a Bill Bryson book. Cant remember the details. But during the 50s the US "government" discovered that a Finnish born man (with legal residens and married to an American woman) had been a member of the Finnish communist party in his youth. The shipped him out on the first plane for Europe, and only told gis wife after the plane landed
