Isn't every immigrant who is not yet a US Citizen only temporarily legal? I think that's the issue here.

They spent all their time talking about the horrible illegal immigrants, and 'I have no problem with the immigrants doing things right'. And now they are showing they are prepared to just unilaterally decide whoever they want to deport, is on the block no matter what their current status is. If they aren't a citizen, then they can be declared illegal and shipped out.

It just highlights the lie that a lot of the more liberal minded people knew was there. It was never about legal status.

You know, when you put it that way, I think you might be right.

That temporary status might even be indefinite, but it's probably technically temporary.
