Deported veterans protest in Mexico

Mexican veterans from the Vietnam and Iraq Wars gathered to protest on Veteran's Day in Ciudad Juarez. These men feel cheated on, and they believe that they were deported unjustly. They risked their lives across the sea and now they have to live separated from their families that live here. Many had received an expedited residency, but once they commit a crime, the government can decide to take it away and deport them to their country. They want Mr. Trump to bring them back, but I doubt he'll do anything. He's only made the situation between Mexico and the U.S. worse with his comments about Mexicans.
