With the new president, a lot of immigrants families are terrified. Some people are saying that their families will be separated once more.

So I asked some random people about what they think about the new president. Is he really going to separate families, is he going to make America great by deporting thousands of immigrants? President-elect Trump says that by building the wall he will Make America Great Again.

I asked myself, Isn’t America Great? The U.S. is the riches country in the world, and it’s a very powerful country. America has great leaders that are working to keep America great. President Obama didn’t stop the deportation, but he also didn’t stop helping people that are undocumented, that are looking for opportunity. Hundreds of immigrants come to U.S. looking for a new life, for a new life for their children, after all, America is built by immigrants. Since the beginning, immigrants moved and started a new life in this country, which back then wasn’t a country. But in time it became a nation.

Now let’s go back about what people said to me when I asked them about Trump’s plan.

I asked some people, Why do you think undocumented people come to the U.S.?
Some people said, “To find a better job and living opportunities. Fulfil their education. Find freedom," and, "Some immigrants come to the U.S. because of war in their country or unfair leaders."

I also asked, Do you think by deporting people will make America great?
Some people said yesand some said no.
Those who said “no” gave me their opinion/point of view. Deporting people won’t solve the problem or make America great like Trump says, it will just settle things down. Deporting people will also affect the U.S. because a lot of undocumented people work on the farm and in companies.
Those who said “yes” also gave me their opinion/point of view. By deporting undocumented people it will make America great because a lot of undocumented people are doing drugs or transporting drugs into this country.

Statistically, not just immigrant or undocumented immigrants do drugs. Anybody can do drugs. In 2015 psychology did a survey that there are nearly 20% of whites have used cocaine. And there are 10% of blacks and Latinos have used cocaine.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
