The Constitution can’t be changed with an EO.
Birthright citizenship was decided by a court. The 14th was written to apply to former slaves and their progeny to overcome the hold democrats still had in the process. An XO can clarify the rules to be applied and besides, no slaves in the U.S. anymore except we, the citizen taxpayers.
He needs to go for it. Hit them with multiple XOs taking on the issue from different angles. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
That's true. Usually it requires a judicial decree to change the Constitution. Of course Abe Lincoln did it with executive orders, but that was 150 years ago.
“The Constitution can’t be changed with an EO.”
It does not need to be changed, only interpreted correctly. The phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” has a meaning and the courts have ignored the meaning of that phrase, it was NOT thrown in just to add meaningless verbiage.
Agree. He can’t do this. I am suspicious of the story. His people would have told him a president can’t override the constitution by EO.
