It's gotten a lot worse faster in the last three years. I've become a citizen under Obama and it was a pretty simple paperwork process. Things are not the same

  Its no worse than it was 6 years ago. Under Obama, I had family who were here legally and were not sure if they should leave because there was no guidance on whether or not they could return. I've had foreign friends here who held legal visas who left the country only to be stuck unable to return because of unclear guidance. But just like now, if you stayed illegally or entered the country illegally and didn't commit any crimes then everyone would just turn a blind eye. It's not a lot worse. It's just differently worse. If you follow the law you're still F'd.

  As an immigrant and married to an immigrant, we both had very similar experiences getting citizenship - it was a painless process when I did it under Obama and my wife under Trump. The only difference we noticed was it took longer and apparently that’s because a lot more people are applying.
