That's really not the point of the story.  It's not really about whether or not he should be deported.  It's more about how someone can be convinced to vote against their own self interest.

What is his self-interest? He can't vote, it was his daughter who voted (and how do we know for certain he voted for Drumpf?). He shouldn't be in a country illegally in the first place, and Drumpf was going to win regardless of that one vote. 

Well, that's all completely irrelevant.  Whether or not he should have been there, he wanted to stay.  He was convinced to support a candidate who would make that more difficult.  That's against his self interest.
