So Trump, you want to deport “homegrown” criminals? Only one of you has 34 felony convictions, was found liable for sexual assault, impeached 2x, and is actively tearing this country apart. Look in the mirror,it’s you. Not sure you’d survive a gulag-you dodged military service because of bone spurs!
