Election Night !

Just read some Yahoo News reporting riot in Portland OR. That's a little bit surprising to me -- is Portland a big city with many liberals?

Another news reported that Trump reconfirmed that he planned to deport 2 to 3 million undocumented immigrants who have criminal records. This number is astonishing. If I remembered right, there are 12 million undocumented immigrants, and 25% has criminal records????!!! If he does this not in a controlled way but in big hurry, there could be a danger of causing social unrest in some cities.

There are checks and balances that prevent Trump from being too radical, so it won't be any kind of overnight revolution. Some doomsday prophets obviously think that he's going to pack them all into cattle trains and send them south, but that won't happen. It all takes time, and new ideas take longer. If too many think it's too controversial, it may not happen at all. Just look at what happened to Obama's great vision of gun control, and you'll see what I mean.
