Trump's new executive orders targeting birthright citizenship are flatly unconstitutional and no executive order can override the 14th Amendment. The Supreme Court already made clear that children born on U.S. soil are citizens, full stop — and these orders don't change that. Expect courts to strike them down fast.
Birth tourism is a racket where wealthy foreign nationals game the system by hopping on a plane while pregnant just to score an American passport for their child. The 14th Amendment was never meant to reward that kind of calculated fraud on American taxpayers. Cracking down on it is common sense, not a constitutional crisis.
