President Trump has once again noted the absurdity of the modern interpretation of the 14th Amendment that invented the concept of birthright citizenship for illegal aliens. As reported by FoxNews:

Speaking to reporters outside the White House on Wednesday, President Trump again threatened to end what he called the "ridiculous" policy of birthright citizenship, which awards citizenship automatically to those born in the United States.

"We're looking at that very seriously," Trump told reporters as he left the White House for Kentucky. "Birthright citizenship, where you have a baby on our land -- you walk over the border, have a baby, congratulations, the baby's now a U.S. citizen. We're looking at it very, very seriously ...It’s, frankly, ridiculous."

Thank God some American president finally have the mind to talk about the abuse of the 14th. Amendment. The United States of America was never intended to be an unassimilated boarding house for The Third World despite the Democrat Party's best intentions to make it so.

This action is long overdue. The 14th Amendment was to assure freed slaves they were citizens and could vote. I believe a court case if properly framed will pass muster at SCOTUS.

100% with DJT and Scalia’s type of interpretation. I have never agreed that babies born to illegal aliens should automatically be citizen’s of the USA.
