    I remember that. It was a total "I didn't think the Face Eating Leopards were going to eat MY face" moment.

    Say what you want about Trump, but he didn't even try to hide his intentions towards immigrants. It's not like he came in saying "I love immigrants" and then suddenly turned. He was quite clear that he hated every immigrant and would deport as many as he could. For this woman to hear that and add "except for my husband" in her head was crazy.

      I didn't look into what they're doing now but I know they had children and ran a business. It's ridiculous that she though trump actually cared about her and her family.

        Maybe she thought she would get just tax cuts that would especially benefit her (and her non-deported husband?). I swear there are some conservatives that would load their own mothers onto boxcars if they thought they'd get a tax cut though.
