I can relate to Reese V. when she wrote about immigrants being asked if they're scared to be sent back in her article, " I Am an American, Too" because when Trump was elected many asked me the same question. I dealt with multiple criticisms, since Trump won the election. People infer that I'm an immigrant only because I'm Hispanic, but what they don't know is that I am a citizen, born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. But I'm glad Trump won because I now know who the arrogant people are, and I'm able to see their true colors. I can relate with Reese when she discussed about her emotions and how she just wanted to scream at the boy, and I actually felt the same way as well when people were talking about Trump, and how I'll get deported along with my family. Thanks to Reese I now know that I'm not the only one that feels this way and that this Trump situation is getting annoying.
