HUGE!! Trump to end birthright citizenship!!!

[Text Drivers are Killers]

This is long overdue. The word "jurisdiction" in the 14th amendment obviously means POLITICAL jurisdiction not legal jurisdiction. And kids born to illegals inherit the nationality of the mother and are under the political jurisdiction of her country.

oct 30 2018 Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump offered a dramatic, if legally dubious, promise in a new interview to unilaterally end birthright citizenship, ratcheting up his hardline immigration rhetoric with a week to go before critical midterm elections.

Trump's vow to end the right to citizenship for the children of non-citizens and unauthorized immigrants born on US soil came in an interview with Axios released Tuesday. Such a step would be regarded as an affront to the US Constitution, which was amended 150 years ago to include the words: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."

Trump did not say when he would sign the order, and some of his past promises to use executive action have gone unfulfilled. But whether the President follows through on his threat or not, the issue joins a string of actions intended to thrust the matter of immigration into the front of voters' minds as they head to polls next week.

Followup action is required. We need to make sure the next liberal president can't reverse this.

Nope.. You don't know the meaning of jurisdiction. US law has jurisdiction on US soil. Not French law, or British law or Egyptian law.. Only the US has jurisdiction.

The liberals have already started spinning this.

We need to make sure that there will never again be a liberal POTUS.

We need to make sure that there will never again be a liberal POTUS.

We need to keep control of Congress so we can get the wall built.

Trump doesn't know that Canada also has birthright citizenship.

Hey DUMBASS! That means that he could DESIGNATE you, me, any enemy, any one who doesn't vote his way, NOT A US CITIZEN. Think about it.

As for Melania and her parents? I'm sure a PRESIDENT can make exceptions for models and chain migrate her parents.

i guess we will have to leave it for the supreme court to decide as this will get there eventually.

No need for you guys to keep control of Congress to do that.

All Trump has to do is to get Mexico to allocate the funds...and it can be built without you guys controlling anything.

Ummm...why has Trump not done that?

Huh?

Like Trump.. they aren't very bright.

Why should Trump care what other countries do?

[FUCK THE POLICE]

You people at disgusting. The words of the constitution couldn't be clearer This is legally meaningless, and so contrary to the law as to be abrogation of his oath of office and grounds for impeachment. Do you honestly think any judge in America is going to hold up Trump abolishing the constitution via an EO?

Just an election week gimmick, the Supreme Court will not allow it, even with two Trump appointees.
