Donald Trump has been re-elected as president, and the Republicans have gained control of the Senate. If you are a non-citizen, especially if you are out of status, I know you must be nervous, anxious and scared, and some of you are possibly thinking about giving up and getting on a plane and going back to your home country.
We are all aware that Trump made immigration one of the cornerstones of his campaign. He has vowed to complete the construction of the border wall and conduct the biggest mass deportation of illegals from the US in history.
From the time he first came down the escalator in Trump Tower to announce he was running for president in 2015, he has spoken harshly about people who want to immigrate to the US. If you remember, Trump described immigrants as rapists, criminals, terrorists "and maybe there are a few good ones." For the most part, he had a negative view of immigrants. And the fact that he was re-elected with such harsh anti-immigrant rhetoric shows that most US voters agree with his policies.
