End of the road!

A lot of litigations will follow, but with a Republican parked SCOTUS, I kinda see it as a done deal.

Those morafvckers will flip anything for Trump.
The court will upturn it or another government will repeal it

Trump is just playing to the gallery. Let him go and solve American's main problems

Very Good, I support the law.

Many terrorist sympathizers don't like America and speak bad about America online but they will still run to US & UK to give birth so their kids can claim citizenship. Why don't they go to Iran, China, Russia, Afghanistan, Lebanon etc to give birth.

The son of the chairman of Jaiz bank in Nigeria is currently serving life sentence in US prison because he wanted to blew up an American airline mid air.

I hope the incoming prime minister of Canada follow suit.
Source of your scandalous statement..

This was a clever tactic to circumvent the lack of standing that had always plagued getting SCOTUS to weigh in on this case. The EO means no US passport can be issued to a child born to parents who are not US citizens or permanent residents. You then have to sue, claiming the government deprived you of your lawful rights. Then, it's up to SCOTUS to interpret the 14th Amendment. With a 6-3 Republican court, BR citizenship is officially toast.

Exactly what I was saying. Trump is already feeling like a dictator, issuing executive orders up and down. Determining citizenship should not an executive function but a legislative one.

I doubt this would pass judicial scrutiny.

The issue here is can you overrule the constitution with an executive order?
An executive order cannot overrule the U.S. Constitution. Birthright citizenship is enshrined in the 14th Amendment, which grants citizenship to anyone born in the United States, regardless of their parents' status. Changing this would require a constitutional amendment or a Supreme Court decision interpreting the amendment differently. An executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship would likely face immediate legal challenges and is unlikely to hold up in court.

You that understands how US law works explain to us how Trump's executive order aligns with the 14th amendment.

Maybe our politicians will learn to fix our health system in Nigeria.

The son of the chairman of Jaiz bank (sharia bank) in Nigeria is currently serving life sentence in US prison because he wanted to blew up an American airline mid air.

I hope the incoming prime minister of Canada follow suit.

The contradiction in your post is as clear as day and depicts you as an unintelligent person.....doubt you even understand the issues.....on one hand you like the one that gave 5 executive orders right in his inauguration speech because he is American and white but you
hate the one who made 2 policy statements that he felt would help solve the decline in our economy just because he is Nigerian and black like you.
