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.

The shipped him out on the first plane for Europe, and only told gis wife after the plane landed
