Selena Gomez is expressing her emotions over Donald Trump‘s plans to deport undocumented immigrants following reports of ICE raids in major cities. “All my people are getting attacked, the children.

I don’t understand,” Gomez shared in an emotional and tearful video posted on her Instagram Stories, which she has now deleted. “I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can’t.
