Reforming immigration was one of the major reasons Donald Trump won the election last month. People are fed up with unfettered illegal immigration over our southern border and the costs associated with it -- including crime.
This is a bold move, and one that will face Constitutional challenges, but Trump said he will end birthright citizenship:
President-elect Donald Trump said he still plans to end birthright citizenship in the United States on day one — but was unable to provide insight into how he would go around the 14th Amendment.
'We’re going to have to get it changed. We’ll maybe have to go back to the people,' Trump said in an interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker on that aired Sunday on NBC’s 'Meet the Press.' 'But we have to end it.'
The Fourteenth Amendment says, 'All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States', so we'll see how any law would work within that amendment.
Of course.
That's how it needs to be done.
Seems to be a common theme.
Yes it is.
We'll see.
But it's adorable how the Left -- who have argued against the clear language of the First and Second Amendments -- now worry about the Fourteenth.
