> Wikipedia has an article that lists documented instances of citizens being removed.

Thanks. It looks like the article lists 8 instances where deportation occurred. In 3 of those instances, the deportee sued and successfully returned, and in 2 they appear to have failed to return after their deportation. This is more like 3 / 5 though as the examples involving children were not technically deportations of the children but of the parents, who were not US citizens.

So it’s more than 0, but so far as I can tell none of the counted deportations occurred when Trump was in office; the last one was in 2008.
