Why Trump's Attempt to End Birthright Citizenship Will Backfire at the Supreme Court

Mark Joseph Stern: Donald Trump issued a patently unconstitutional executive order purporting to abolish birthright citizenship to children of millions of immigrants.

President Trump announced an executive order that attempts to deny citizenship for countless children born on U.S. soil. Tell Congress: Protect birthright citizenship.

Repeating what I posted yesterday:

I want to point out a couple of things:

1. The plain language of the 3rd section of the 14th says Shitler should not be allowed to be president. This SC said otherwise

2. This SC created, out of whole cloth, immunity from prosecution for any and all crimes that fall under his core powers, whatever those are deemed to be, by his DoJ.

3. This SC created, out of whole cloth, justification for overturning RvW.

4. This SC disregarded the clear constitutional requirements and ruled on the Student Debt relief case.

5. This SC manufactured evidence to justify a clear violation of the doctrine of separation of church and state in the Bremerton Washington case.

It is HIGHLY likely that this SC will find justification for to approve Shitler's EO in some form or another. Or Shitler will simply ignore their decision.

Shitler has spent a decade arguing (without merit mind you) that the undocumented immigrants are an invading army. He and the SC will use that as justification to redefine birthright citizenship

What now seems absurd will become dreaded reality.

While SCOTUS may agree with their king, the arguments presented to counter King Dotard II's point of view will be so forceful and comprehensive that the phony 'originalists' on the court will be twisted up so tightly in faulty logic that their open bias toward the king will be plain. They may as well say so: "Trump said it. I believe it. That ends it." Hell, if getting rid of the entire amendment were asked for and slavery reinstated, Clarence Thomas would vote to concur...

Excellent analysis by Slate. I concur.

5-4 decision breaking for Hair Furor.

Republicans have a democracy to undermine. They're not about to let a minor detail like 126 years of precedent, the plain meaning of words, legislative history, or compassion for others stop them.

patently unconstitutional

The 14th amendment was already reduced to rubble when Trump was allowed to run for office after his insurrection.

I'm done being optimistic about upholding the Constitution.

The U.S. Supreme Court is nothing more than a stage prop for Trump and the GOP.

People with guns will defend themselves when met with violations of the 4th Amendment. Good luck, MAGANazis, you're gonna need it.

The constitution is meaningless when democrats fail to uphold it and republicans openly ignore it.

Trump is king.

The Republican Party will change America, much like FDR did. But in the opposite direction.

As were the arguments in the immunity case
in the insurrection case
in the student debt relief case
in the Dobbs case

You fail to recognize the radicals on the SC will justify ANYTHING they want to reach a foregone conclusion.

Unfortunately I think I have found the "justification".

It will be unfortunate if the SC rules in favor. Given the EO nature, next President nullifies, why take it to court? Then when Democrats are back in control, just change it again?

The point being, if SCOTUS does decide, its done. Of course I have a vested interest in this, I won't whine like the TruthHurts does over it, I have never seen someone whine so much about so little in all my short life.

That's actually the name of his youtube channel for SVC sufferers; the Severely Vertically Challenged.

It's rather drama queen stuff, but all the tiny outfits are admittedly just the cutest things!
