The chump sez he will find a way to abolish the 14th amendment that gives birthright CITIZENSHIP to anyone born in America. What's next?

Rescinding the citizenship of all NATURALIZED CITIZENS?

Then uncitizenizing of all people of color retroactively? The uncitizenizing of the dead who came here and became citizens? Where will his fruitcake obsession to whiten America end? A worthy goal for pasty whites who support whatever he duz or sez or abhorrent wackadoodle evil Satanic?

Then he will have his white nationalist racist terrorist fascist country of his dream. How long will it take to get all that accompished?

    He is actually trying to go back to the original intension of the amendment. Its purpose was to clarify that the newly freed black people were USA citizens.  It was needed because the Dems in the south were passing Jim Crow laws.

    The 14th does not mean anyone born on USA soil is automatically a citizen. It never meant that. If it did then Congress would not have needed to pass a separate law in the 1924 making American Indians citizens. It was ruled several times by the SCOTUS not to extent to every person born on US soil. It is only recently that there was a change in the courts.  

    The 14th has a qualifier....All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.  

    What does "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" mean? It means not being a citizen of another country already, not owing an alliegence to another nation.
