Trump trying to end birthright citizenship

What an absolute fricking idiot. Again.

Clearly unconstitutional. Why does this fool hate the Constitution?

Failure to clarify the 14th Amendment has been a terminal illness to our nation. There's a "birth tourism" business, FFS.

I don’t think it’s good for our country that a president can do this unilaterally and without debate, creates too much executive power. This should go through congress.

Really doubt an executive order can do it.

Maybe a law if fashioned correctly can do it. Will hang on the "subject to the jurisdiction" phrase.


But this bit of the article

quote:

---

However, Canada and many other countries grant birthright citizenship

is garbage journalism.

basically the US, Canada, and bunch of other countries no one would want to move to.

Add another amendment to the constitution.

"Anyone who votes for a Democratic Presidential candidate is financially responsible for the education, healthcare, housing and utilities, and food of any person born on their property."

Watch how fast they build walls around their property

This would get laughed at in court.

This seems like a second term issue. Surprised Trump is taking it on in his first term.

:bow:

Why is he doing this shite before midterms?

#MAGA

I think it’s funny that leftists don’t think they will end up having the same conversation if they elect an Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders.

If you make the decision as a country to have all of these social programs, eventually you can only tax so much and have to cut down on who receives benefits. Hell, our programs are already strapped.

The inherent problem isn’t citizenship necessarily but entitlements. We have to cut one or the other...
