    ACLU Retweeted Axios

    This is a blatantly unconstitutional attempt to fan the flames of anti-immigrant hatred in the days ahead of the midterms. The 14th Amendment’s citizenship guarantee is clear. You can’t erase the Constitution with an executive order, @realDonaldTrump.https://twitter.com/axios/status/1057206703043821569 …

        Exactly: "This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons."

        This is weird to me because Trump supporters wouldn't even be able to to pass an elementary civics test, but think they have a right to be here because this is where their mother shot them out.

        A bit of both? A lot of people wouldn't pass the standards we have for immigration but act very entitled simply because they were born here.

        Many venezuelan parents went to USA with the intention of getting their child citizenship once was born. When Maduro took power they emigrated legally since they were citizens.

        I lived in SoFla for 50 years and watched the flood of Russians flock to Sunny Isles Beach to birth their anchor babies. Most lived in tRump's building on Collins Avenue.

        I've lived in countries without birthright citizenship and it's so hard to cross the threshold into meeting citizenship criteria. I can't even imagine how many people this would disenfranchise in the states. A country set up for people fleeing persecution now rejecting them.

        I wonder if I would fall under this - my parents survived the holocaust and married in 1959 - I don’t think they were citizens yet.

        We're supposed to be the "land of opportunity", not the "land of xenophobia" and the "land of racism". Those behaviors are as anti-American as it gets. 😔#Diversity IS our unity. and our strength.
