He will follow through. He's proven time and time again that he follows through with what he promises when he's not blocked by Congress. If there is one thing you can't accuse Trump of doing is not following through on campaign promises and this issue was brought up originally when he was running for President.
I will prove to you he does not follow through
ACA killed first day in office how did that work out??
Special prosecutor to go after Hilary still no word on this
Mexico is still not paying for the wall that 70% of Americans do not want
Where is the amazing health care plan for all
What about lower drug prices??
Trump could sell a Yugo like it is a $100k car and his sheep would believe it 500% they fall for all his other B S
I think it's fair to conclude that most Americans don't agree with allowing illegal immigrants who have babies on US soil to allow that child to automatically be granted citizenship.
It was not the intention of the 14th amendment either. Deal with it.
2016 First Focus Poll Two-thirds of voters (67 percent) support maintaining the Constitutional right to birthright citizenship for all children born in the United States. New York voters are the most supportive of this policy, with 81 percent of respondents in favor. Twenty-two percent of overall respondents were opposed to birthright citizenship. https://firstfocus.org/news/press-re...grant-children
no, he will just motivate some of them to turn off Fox long enough and go out and vote. No one else even believes this nonsense, it's very much like him promising a 10% middle class tax cut would be passed while congress is in recess...and some folks just swallow the bait every time, no matter how idiotic his latest claim is.
You mean like 'If you like your doctor, you can KEEP your doctor'?
Something needs to be done regarding this issue. I’ll bet half or more of the women in the ever looming caravan are pregnant and that’s why they’re trying so hard to get here. All they need to do is drop that baby on US soil and they’re set for life. This anchor baby situation must end.

Do you live in the US? And do you consider yourself to be "set for life"?
Hmmm.....you say they were immigrants, and had babies in US, and the babies were granted birthright citizenship.
Please explain why they should be granted anything just because they were both here? This is the right Trump is trying to cancel. Coming to think of it, one could argue that with Trumps new constitution, no one should be granted citizenship by birth.
PS Ted Cruz father didn't even become a Canadian citizen until 1973. Later he applied for ASYLUM in US.
lmao..The only ones jettisoning originalism are you and the Leftists here that refuse to read and understand what the man who WROTE the damn amendment had to say about it.
Really? I quoted what the delegates said about it. I actually read the debate. They said that anyone born in the United States in a geographical area subject to United States civil and criminal law and its enforcement by the judiciary would become a citizen. Sen. Howard, who wrote the amendment, confirmed that "jurisdiction" meant "coextensive in all respects with the constitutional power of the United States, whether exercised by Congress, by the executive or the judicial department." Illegal aliens most certainly fall under that umbrella, as they are subject to laws exercised by Congress, by the executive, and by the judicial department.
I even quoted the part where they expressed concern over foreigners and aliens becoming citizens but decided not to change it further to address that issue.
