There is genuine danger that even legally settled Pakistani Americans may be deported after Trump takes over later this month. After the recent New Orleans terrorist attack that killed 15, people with mindsets like Trump's will conclude that Muslims pose a danger to the country. Pakistani Americans, being the largest group of American Muslims, are likely to be targeted. They should refrain from going to other countries for a year at least, until the dust settles down. There's no telling that they will be deported on arrival, merely on the basis of their religion, and even if they've been living in the US for long. 

I have many relatives and friends living in the US. Some of them were in Karachi recently but left last week, fearing that returning after the Trump administration takes over might cause them to be deported.You simply can't trust people like Trump, they think they're above the law and can do anything they want. Let's hope and pray that he changes and doesn't do anything drastic.
