Can they really deport a US citizen?

Other countries can. But technically, the US government cannot deny a US citizen access.

Are they allowed to? Absolutely not. But... who is stopping them?

Threatening to detain you indefinitely (your rights aren't the same at the border/customs as they are after entering the country), or just outright deny you entry.

That's after you go through customs. AFAIK, that doesn't apply to people coming into the country.

Although this administration holds people more than 48 hours regardless.
