I get that he won't be deporting DACA recipients - but let's NOT forget that during his term he stacked the Supreme court, can now also appoint more judges during his term, and that he also appointed many conservative FEDERAL judges in circuit and district courts where DACA is constantly being fought over in many states. To say that Trump will only affect migrants is an understatement to say the least.
Here I am - incredibly disappointed that Kamala, (while she was thoroughly qualified), never directly addressed the migrant/immigration issue to voters - and let's face it, Americans DO NOT want endless mass migrations of ppl coming to the US, getting free healthcare, working papers, etc - I live in NYC and even in this ultra-liberal zone, people are not happy with the multitudes of migrants showing up all over - sidewalks/subways/cafes, panhandling, filling classrooms in public schools, receiving cash benefits, free housing etc. Well, we know for sure that Trump will at least be putting a stop to what has become an uncontrolled border issue.
Absolutely does suck for the rest of us who are being roped in with all the rest of them.
Done with rant.

Same exact situation and career as you lol, minus the ivy. Migrants near me have not really been disruptive but the sentiment is horrible. Why do you say he wont be deporting people with daca? He prioritizes criminals but he can lump our situation as overstaying as a crime. Too much heat and battle on daca. The conservatives are totally fine with taking it away and NOT caring about our careers, families, lives.
