The intelligent question is did these people or the ones who organized their migration to the U.S. really believe that they could rely on an inherently illegal process and policy? Maybe the migrants themselves, or some of them, are illiterate simpletons. But did these people organize their own transport? Who told them they should come to the U.S.?
The European immigrants of the early 20th Century were led to believe that "the streets were paved with gold" but they did not rely on the government to guarantee it. Trump may not be everyone's favorite. He's not mine. But he's not "the Grinch who stole Christmas" or some random "meanie." No one had a right to rely on any ability to break the law forever.
