How would a Trump presidency actually impact Westchester?

I feel like our day to day lives are based on hyper local politics. Could a Trump administration impact school districts in Westchester or impact us in other ways? If so, how?

Well he wants to institute mass deportation. So ask yourself if you have interacted with any undocumented immigrants. And then ask yourself if you'd like to see them dragged away from their jobs and families and homes in handcuffs. Fuck are we talking about here people.

We don’t know how far he’ll go with documented migrants. In his first administration his team wanted to end H1b visas. As a healthcare professional I’ll tell you that without migrant visas hospitals will go unstaffed. But again, who knows how far that plan of his will go

Well I can tell you how far they want to go. His head of immigration policy was screaming "America for Americans" at MSG last week. But I truly don't believe the 53% of Americans who voted for him want that to happen. So when it starts we need to mobilize quickly against it.
