re: Any chance Trump deports European DACA recipients with no criminal charges

let's just say their legal counsel advised them to forego the work permit and register under DACA in order to get a green card quicker.

Well that sucks. The first DACA recipient has been detained (due to possible gang membership). I know his case is different than most DACA applicants, but it still makes you wonder what exactly is going to happen moving forward. Depending on the mood Trump is in, DACA could go away with the stroke of a pen and mass deportations could ensue. And because every DACA applicant handed over their information, the government knows where they live and could deport them as soon as their deferment ends.

If I was your European friends, I wouldn't panic, but I would be concerned and hope Trump doesn't have one of his "Mexico" days.
