'Litigation is a certainty': Trump's call to end birthright citizenship would face a mountain of opposition
nbcnews.com
Summary
Donald Trump has pledged to end birthright citizenship through an executive order if re-elected, targeting the 14th Amendment’s provision that grants citizenship to all born in the U.S.
Critics argue this policy would defy the Constitution, specifically its post-Civil War intent to ensure citizenship for former slaves.
Legal experts widely agree that the Amendment’s language includes children born to undocumented parents, but Trump’s proposal could lead to an immediate legal battle.
The policy would require federal agencies to verify parents’ immigration status, complicating access to Social Security numbers and passports for U.S.-born children.

When they say it's about race, it's about class. When they say it is about class, it's about gender. And when they say it's out gender, it's about race.
Or at least that's how it feels sometimes.
Other races, lower classes and LGBT.
Republican's only need their voters to be two things:
Hates one of the above.
Doesn't give a shit about the other two.
So they are incentivised to scatter shot and hurt as many people as possible to get the maximum number of votes... America is fucked.
It's about making a white christofascists nation, with Trump in it for the white fascism part (I think his narcissism has him put himself above religion).
