Trump wants to sign an order to end birthright citizenship, setting up a constitutional battle

• Trump tells Axios he plans to sign an executive order that would remove the right to citizenship for babies of noncitizens and unauthorized immigrants born on U.S. soil.
• The move would likely lead to a constitutional uproar.

​

President Donald Trump told Axios he is planning to terminate birthright citizenship, potentially setting up another constitutional standoff.

Trump said Monday he will sign an executive order that would remove the right to citizenship for babies of noncitizens and unauthorized immigrants born on U.S. soil.

"It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional amendment. Guess what? You don't," Trump said in the interview by Axios on HBO, the news site's new documentary series.


"We're the only country in the world where a person comes in and has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States ... with all of those benefits," Trump said. "It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. And it has to end."

"It's in the process. It'll happen ... with an executive order."

However, Canada and many other countries grant birthright citizenship.

Opponents will argue that it's not within the president's power to change birthright citizenship.

The 14th Amendment to the Constitution says:

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Trump's comments come as he continues to push a hard anti-immigration line ahead of next week's midterm elections. On Monday, the Defense Department announced plans to deploy 5,200 active duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border by end of the week as a migrant caravan made its way north from Central America.

Trump said he had run the idea of ending birthright citizenship by his counsel and plans to proceed, despite the likely uproar. However, during the interview, Trump expressed surprise that Axios knew about his secret plan: "I didn't think anybody knew that but me. I thought I was the only one," he said.

Correction: This story was revised to correct the timing of the midterm elections.

He doesn't have the authority.

This is a distraction to get the media to stop talking about the mail bombs and synagogue shooting.

 

[smoovejazz]

Dude sure does have a hardon for immigrant people. What have they done to him? Doesn't he know that his ancestors were immigrants? Haven't immigrants made him enough money over the years with cheap labor?

 

[Simply Sickenin']

At this point, nothing surprises me. Hell, I'm can't believe they waited this long. Guess him and the GOP needed to get their judge in place first.
Also....

"We're the only country in the worldwhere a person comes in and has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States ... with all of those benefits," Trump said. "It's ridiculous.It's ridiculous. And it hasto end."

That's not ridiculous Donald. It's kinda the whole point of this America thing.

that's why he doesn't want them here, stay over there and continue to give us cheap labor

 

[Mixd]

Wouldn't this knock out every citizen of the United States?

Not sure if this is a chess move removing birth certificates or this is just some dumb shit he doing.

That's what I'm thinking. It's the removal of birth certificates period. You know what that means?

That's all he's been doing and like dummies they vote for him forgetting he did none of what he said he'll do for him.

It's like an abusive wife who stays because her husband says he loves her and everything thing he does is for her.

Not directly....but I believe prison labor would take on a more significant role than it currently does

Not that he can get away with this …. but if he does by some remote chance …. it's gonna be president for life ……

[Simply Sickenin']

For the people saying that this could never happen, I have an honest question. While I agree that changing the constitution like this is WAY outside of the president's power. Isn't it totally within the power of the Supreme Court?

Like isn't that why Mitch McConnell fought tooth and nail to deny Obama's guy and wait until they could confirm their own guy.

These motherfuckers ain't just evil. They're pure unadulterated evil. They're scared as fuck of losing power and are slowing trying to rewrite the constitution to ensure that they'll always have power, influence, and money. They probably came up with this plan years ago.

The fact that he was thinks he can do this with an executive order tells you all you need to know

 

[lightbright]

Supreme Court interpretes the constitution and the constitution is clear on this one.

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

It’s what the court looked at to rule in the dredd Scott decision that gave us citizen rights.

Conservatives have been wanting this clause done away with for decades...

For obvious reasons...

Which it what kills me when repubs say that Democrats are evil..

These fuckers don’t even try to hide their shit.


Update...

To clarify one part

The Supreme Court has never had to rule if this amendment applies to noncitizen immigrants or visitors...

I just don’t see how they could limit it scope because the constitution is fucking clear on this. like explicit

 

[lightbright]

…..and LSN..... board homo, stalker, fairy, queen of faggotry makes her appearance #215 at a post of mine

[Dannyblueyes]

Wouldn't this knock out every citizen of the United States?

More importantly, if this concept were taken to the fullest extent, Barak Obama would no longer be a US citizen since his father was here on a student visa.

 

[bgbtylvr]

That anchor baby Shit should go first. If you here on vacation and give birth, go back home as raise your kids. If you don’t have a job or home here, and try to pull any of this shit and so on, go back until we vet your ass. And Fuck bringing aunts and grandmas because somebody got married to a simp or have birth on our soil.

 

[saundman]

This has been in the works for some time and was not just thought up recently.

This just happened in the the Dominican Republic and Haiti?

When the Dominican Republic start stripping Citizenship and deporting Haitians who have been in the country for decades.

See that's the point that scares me a little. The current government clearly don't care about the law. Like any laws. Nature, gravity, common decency. The GOP doesn't give a flying fuck about none of it. So I see them going after this rule this time differently than all the others. There were rules before.

I'm only a citizen because I born here. And I watched my mom try for years before successfully getting her citizenship. Most of these natural born CaC Americans couldn't pass the test to become a citizen. But they still talk shit and throw shade.
