Yep, he should've at least gotten some Congressional allies to start proposing constitutional amendments as he promised he would do.

Every district and senate seat

And yeah, I'd amend the constitution to get rid of birthright citizenship and presidential term limits.

I'd want to be in office for as long as needed to fix this place.

We can just amend the birthright citizenship portion of the US Code.

How would you guys handle North Korea if you were Blumpf

''(a) a person born in the United States before 1982 or conceived either by an American mother or by an American father who has been a resident of the United States.''

It's an extension of the trade war with China; however, the fact is that we would profit immensely in the polls if Korea unified.

14th amendment is what establishes jus soli though isn't it?

Not quite.

I think we'd need a constitutional amendment for that, right?

I'd handle NK the same way Trump is, also

The US Code (Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965) establishes it, and the Supreme Court has left the question of whether it can be abolished ambiguous.

Madman Theory

In its original context, Congress guaranteed birthright citizenship regardless of race in the Immigration Act of 1865 or something

14th amendment

and then the SCOTUS ruled on that

however Congress has the power to act to enforce the 14th amendment

huh

This is really something that's more like "It's been around for so long it feels like a part of the Constitution." but it's really Act of Congress

Just got a 12hr timeout on twittwe for calling everyone bloodthirsty scumbags who was in favor of intervention in Syria. This literally just happened in Libya, when you depose a secular strongman in that region, you leave the country vunerable to fundamentalist radicals. Fucking morons, i got a huge bug up my ass over this one.

I don't remember which law they tried to use to bar citizenship to the Chinese man in the original context in the 19th century

but I'm pretty sure it was something about Chinese exclusion basically

From where?

@Gigglemesh

twitter

@Gigglemesh Twitter has been the Stasi for a while now

Chinese Exclusion Act was an example of competent Congress

IMO Twitter is worse than Facebook

Yeah, democracy can't work in the ME and Africa

"The Constitution nowhere defines the meaning of these words, either by way of inclusion or of exclusion, except insofar as this is done by the affirmative declaration that "all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States." In this as in other respects, it must be interpreted in the light of the common law, the principles and history of which were familiarly known to the framers of the Constitution. Minor v. Happersett, 21 Wall. 162; Ex parte Wilson, 114 U.S. 417, 422; Boyd v. United States, 116 U.S. 616, 624, 625; Smith v. Alabama, 124 U.S. 465. The language of the Constitution, as has been well said, could not be understood without reference to the common law. Kent Com. 336; Bradley, J., in Moore v. United States, 91 U.S. 270, 274. [p655]"

Also 1924 Immigration Act

^

however it continues with stuff like the original Immigration Act which excluded whites

Thanks for explaining the specifics of jus soli btw

and it goes on with how blacks have citizenship

actually, here's another question you guys can consider

If you found yourself mind controlling Trump right now, what would you do?

(in this scenario, we're starting from right now, not January 20, 2017)

and eventually it basically declares that Chinese (Asians) are also citizens by this logic

National Origins Quota is vital

However it leaves the door open to excluding people

Well, I'd fire every globalist in the admin
