If those are below average in CO2 emissions you would make the numbers worse though, and that seems pretty likely to me. Need to deport only rich immigrants owning more than one car.

How many Elon Musk's would we have to deport?
Counting just private jet flight about 200 Elons (5kt CO2/y). Some people are even higher, and large yachts are worse than business jets I'd assume.
But I'd say that people tend to actually overestimate the share of super-rich; ten thousand normal US citizens emit more than a single billionaire, and there's not that many billionaires.
