President Donald Trump praised former Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada who once supporting an end to birthright citizenship:
So-called Birthright Citizenship, which costs our Country billions of dollars and is very unfair to our citizens, will be ended one way or the other. It is not covered by the 14th Amendment because of the words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” Many legal scholars agree…..

Dems have gone “insane and stared with the Open Borders”:
….Harry Reid was right in 1993, before he and the Democrats went insane and started with the Open Borders (which brings massive Crime) “stuff.” Don’t forget the nasty term Anchor Babies. I will keep our Country safe. This case will be settled by the United States Supreme Court!

Trump later added that “The World is using our laws to our detriment. They laugh at the Stupidity they see!”

Trump also lashed out at outgoing Speaker of the House Paul Ryan who said yesterday “you cannot end birthright citizenship with an executive order,” which the president seemed to accidentally confirm by saying a “new Republican Majority will work on this”:
Paul Ryan should be focusing on holding the Majority rather than giving his opinions on Birthright Citizenship, something he knows nothing about! Our new Republican Majority will work on this, Closing the Immigration Loopholes and Securing our Border!

Now we wait for 6 days to see if there’s even a Republican majority in the house to get stuff like this done.
