Pres. Trump to Target Birthright Citizenship via EO!
 
Quote:

President Trump is reportedly considering putting out an executive order in his final weeks in office to target birthright citizenship, according to two sources who spoke to The Hill.

Ending birthright citizenship — which guarantees citizenship to anyone born on US soil, regardless of the citizenship of their parents — has been something Trump's talked about doing since his 2016 campaign.


Vice President-elect Kamala Harris is an example of someone who gained her citizenship this way. Her Indian mother and Jamaican father were not yet US citizens when they had her in California in 1964.

When reached for comment by The Hill, a White House spokesman said he wouldn't "speculate or comment on potential executive action."

However, The Intercept reported in 2018 that this is "an idea rejected by an overwhelming consensus of conservative and liberal law scholars." A law written into the Constitution can only be ended through a new amendment.

If the president finally issues a long-awaited executive order limiting birthright citizenship, it will be up to the Supreme Court to resolve this issue once and for all," Hauman said.

According to The Hill report, the Trump administration is aware that it would immediately be challenged in court if they passed an executive order on the issue. They hope to get a ruling on whether the 14th Amendment protects birthright citizenship, according to one of the sources who spoke to The Hill and is familiar with the plans.

To all the Trump supporters in this forum, this is what a second Miller administration will look like. Good thing Joe Biden won the election.

I am pretty sure this would violate the 14th amendment of the constitution. Most of these are for show and to create 2024 talking points. No need to panic

good a bunch of MAGATS would never pass the Murica citizenship test. Either way this would get struck down by the courts immediately. You can't override the constitution by executive orders.

Fucking Miller should just come out and say citizenship will only be granted if you have 2 white parents who are U.S. Citizens. If you are any other color you will need to earn your citizenship by agreeing to become slaves for the next 10+ years.

Not to state the obvious but you guys do know that he'll kill DACA on his way out, right?

If he's competent enough to do it, he would of done it a long time ago. Thankfully, he's admin are full of idiots. If he kills it on the way out it might work to our advantage. Biden will put it back together and hopefully better this time.

Even if he were to kill DACA. It will actually work out for our advantage because Biden can easily put us under TPS due to the pandemic and no lawsuit or judge can end it. TPS would actually be better for us than DACA.

So what's the play here? Get the case to the Supreme Court before Biden has a chance to come and bitch slap his executive order?
