In reply to the discussion: Trump has a social media toddler tantrum after attending SCOTUS birthright citizenship hearing [View all]BlueKota
(5,353 posts)54. Since tsf's mother was born in Scotland can
his citizenship be revoked and then he could be impeached, if the SC were to side with him? My parents were both born here, and on my Dad's side even my great grandparents were born here. My maternal grandparents were born in Italy but but both sets of my maternal great grandparents moved here too. So by his administration's definition of what entitles one to citizenship, does that mean I am more of American Citizen than he is?
I'd say send him to Scotland, but some of my ancestors on my Dad's side were from there, so I wouldn't want to burden that lovely country either.

Also in none of the pictures can you see the left hand. I say it was behind his back, fingers crossed.

Everything is "STUPID" to this "social media toddler". He is a joke, a farce. I'm sure he has dementia.

They found out the hard way but got stuck. We found out the hard way and did it again.

I hope the Court goes 9-0 because none of them will follow Trump this far down the road.

I'm not sure how Mexico's policies determine the content of our Constitution. I find your reply otherwise informative

Even though Mexico has birthright citizenship in their constitution, it's not as easy to get a birth certificate as US

Thank you for the response. I'm trying to digest this info with little knowledge of Mexican constitutional protections.

DJ is also just a school playground bully. He thinks that SCOTUS is part of his playground.

There are countries that will consider you a citizen if you were born there whether you like it or not. They will always

More countries have birthright citizenship than a constitutional right to own guns
