Trump Exploring ‘All Legal Options’ to End ‘Crazy’ Anchor Baby Policy
« on: August 26, 2019, 12:08:28 pm »
Breitbart by John Binder 8/25/2019

White House senior adviser Stephen Miller says President Trump is currently reviewing “all legal options” to end the country’s birthright citizenship policy which has allowed millions of illegal aliens to secure American citizenship for their U.S.-born children.

Last week, Trump told the media is he “very seriously” looking at signing an executive order that will end birthright citizenship in the U.S., calling the policy “frankly ridiculous.”

During an interview with Fox News’ John Roberts, Miller said the White House is, in fact, reviewing “all legal options” to end birthright citizenship where an average of about 300,000 U.S.-born children of illegal aliens — often referred to as “anchor babies” — are born every year. According to the Fox News interview:

    ROBERTS: The president indicated this the other day when he was leaving to get on Marine One. He said that he is looking at birthright citizenship — which is enshrined in the 14th Amendment. What are the plans for that? [Emphasis added]

    MILLER: Well, I noticed that you worked in that it is “enshrined into the 14th Amendment.” Many constitutional scholars would wholeheartedly disagree with that.

I believe the only ultimate obstacle would be John Roberts, the notorious one.

I really don't think there is an obstacle. Just do it!

Well, yes, at that point he was talking about congressional action. Last fall, when it became more clear the house would be lost, he started discussing executive action.
