Why I May Get Deported -- DACA

Yeah, or if we get lucky, which isn't gonna happen, I really doubt, because Congress is made up of a majority of Republicans, Congress can find an easier way for DACA recipients to get citizenship. And when I tweeted today saying that I'm a DACA recipient, people, there was like 10 or 15 people that were like, fuck you, you have so much money, you could've gotten a citizenship.

I'm like, you realize how stupid you guys sound right now? When they explained it to me, I found out I wasn't a citizen when I was like 16 years old. Yeah. When I got my driver's license or when I tried to get my driver's license.
