The problem here is that you're taking his words very seriously. Nobody cares about what he says as much as liberal media and immigrant groups. They're too naive to understand that the dude is doing nothing he said he would. The immigrant ban wasn't his idea at all. That was all Bannon and now Bannon is about to get the axe. Democrats do not like to compromise. They would have never compromised if HRC was president. Now they have no choice because Trump is no chump when it comes to this. If McCain and Graham get involved I am damn sure Schumer and Co. will come to the party to compromise.

The litmus test isn't whether ICE has come to my door yet but under Trump's order, next time I get stopped for having a tail light out, I could very well be arrested and put in jail for years while they figure out where to deport me to as my home country doesn't accept deportees. That was not the case under Obama as I was not a priority.
I'm also very glad that you have an EAD because guess what? Trump ended any hope I had of getting one when he officially ended Expanded DACA. You still have yours though so congrats.
It also means that if I ever get a chance to move forward with my case, I again have the very real danger of getting detained and that was a much lower chance under Obama.
You also keep mentioning "liberal media" and "immigrant groups" as if you're immune to the wrath of conservatives. Do you really think you're one of them? The only people you have fighting for you are those liberals and immigrant groups. Sometimes their hearts are bigger than their brains but at least they're on your side while you have Nazi's marching in Virginia wanting to keep you out.
You're really the naive one who is trying to be too clever and not see what's in front of you.
