I know you mean well and want to save the world from trolls, but this is not a hypothetical. I have a friend who is in this exact situation (previous administration, don't get your hopes up for another story for your bandwagon). The parents had temporary asylum. They had kids in the US. Asylum expired and was not renewed. They've been fighting a court battle for several years now because there's an order to deport the parents and place the kids in foster care. They would prefer to stay in the US, but failing that they would like to leave with their children.
Now imagine being a judge, and you are supposed to allow a US citizen child to be taken to a country that is hostile to the US. In the current media climate.
And this is exactly the problem with these knee-jerk emotional reactions: reality is a lot more complicated.
