Trump and Birthright Citizenship

I've been pleased with Trump so far into term 2.0, but I think the birthright citizenship thing really needs to go through Congress. It would respect the separation of powers and the law would be stickier than an Executive Order.

I understand the problem we've got and the perverse incentive to land here, download a kid, and think that it will make one immune to immigration laws. I just think he could go through Congress with Speaker Johnson to get this going.
Of course that’s the plan.

just me, but why waste time?

Trump and Birthright Citizenship

Just like a lot of the things Trump announces, it is as much about driving behavior as anything.

When Joe Biden and his admin effectively announce to the world that they will gladly welcome illegal immigrants, it has a huge effect….maybe even more so than the actual legal policy or enforcement.

Trump’s new sheriff in town approach has a snowball effect that will exponentially change behavior rooted all the way back to even leaving the house in Mexico, Guatemala, etc. Why even make the effort?

You think these illegals have a working wonky knowledge of the immigration law details? No. But they absolutely hear the winds of change on who was in charge and who is now.

It is already happening. The deterrent factor of criminals now fearing if they commit a crime and get caught, they will get deported?

All of this makes so much sense.

The sad part is that the opposite policy made so much sense also…..but only to those seeking to increase democrat votes across generations. Get em here. And ultimately give them amnesty…..creating millions of grateful voters.

So obvious what the strategy has been beginning with Obama and then put on steroids by the committee holding Biden’s strings the last four years. Completely intentional.
