As Ubanda concedes , review is for plain error under United States v. Peltier ; he preserves for possible further review the issue of whether an abuse of discretion is the proper standard. 505 F.3d 389, 391

- 92 (5th Cir. 2007). For reversible plain error, Ubanda must show a clear or obvious forfeited error that affected his substantial rights. See Puckett v. United States , 556 U.S. 129, 135 (2009). Even if he shows such reversible plain error, we have the discretion to correct the error, but should do so only if it seriously affects the fairness, int egrity, or public reputation of the proceedings. See id. Ubanda fails, however, to show any error. In addition to preserving the issue of the correct standard of review, Ubanda seeks to preserve other issues for review as well. He acknowledges his

- 31 (5th Cir. 2009). Duarte also forecloses Ubanda’s contention that the application of § 2L1.2 results in double counting because his prior convictions were used in determining both his offense level and his c riminal history category. See id. Likewise, t h is court has rejected the claim that the offense of illegal reentry is merely a trespass offense and is treated too harshly under § 2L1.2. United States v. Juarez

- Duarte, 513 F.3d 204, 212 (5th Cir. 2008) (“Congress considers illegal reentry into the United States subsequent to a conviction for an aggravated felony an extremely serious offense punishable by up to twenty years in prison.”)

. Insofar as Ubanda maintains the district court failed to take into account his personal history and characteristics, the court heard Ubanda’s mitigatin g assertions , but determined those circumstances we re insufficient to rebut the

sentence. Ubanda’s dis agreement with the district court’s evaluation of the sentencing factors was not sufficient to rebut the presumption of reasonableness. See United States v. Ruiz , 621 F.3d 390, 398 (5th Cir. 2010) (citation omitted)
