This applies to naturalized citizens as well, though. So yes, citizens are affected. Anyone that is a naturalized citizen can be treated like a lower class.

Folks with green cards, which we know a bit about, are affected. It doesn't matter what your status is so long as you weren't born here.

I am scared. President Trump's twitter account shows he is petty, vindictive, and thin-skinned. I won't be surprised if immigrants who are critical of him are punished. [1]

PS. Immigrants in the past came to kill all of the locals. ;)

No they didn't. They didn't actively come here to kill the locals. Work on your history. They actively came for gold and a new life. The locals and they didn't get along to be very simple about it. War was waged between the two.
