@AverageJoe1 saidWrite up a proposed constitutional amendment and get it ratified by 3/4 of state legislatures and 2/3 of Congress.
Well, the problem needs to be fixed. Getting rid of illegals in this country needs to be fixed. Things have got to be fixed.
You better hope it stops, or your benefits might get diluted and reduced!!!
It's not illegal immigrants or "anchor babies" that "dilute" or "reduce" the benefits of the average US citizen. Illegal immigrants give more than they get through the work they do in the US that no one else will—working for peanuts, I might add, and paying taxes to boot.
You know what screws people out of benefits? Senseless wars. Take a look at this:

Republicans Want to Gut Health Care to Pay for Trump’s Iran War
Republicans are eyeing massive cuts to health care spending in order to scrounge up $200 billion for Donald Trump’s reckless war in Iran.
Top Republicans are looking for ways to offset the massive price tag the Pentagon has requested in order to pass the additional funding for U.S. military operations in Iran through a budget reconciliation bill, Axios reported Monday.
Proposing to kick an estimated 300,000 more people off healthcare to pay for Trump's failed attempt to overthrow Iran's hard-line theocracy is breathtakingly on-the-nose, but such brazen callousness is now par for the course with the GOP.

This man needs to be stopped.
If not, there's no telling how long it will be before the Constitution is in tatters.
@sonhouse saidYou don’t answer the question. Does it make sense that a woman who is here on vacation at the Grand Canyon has a baby and the baby is immediately a citizen of the United States. Please explain why you think that is logical or if it makes any sense.. don’t mention Trump.
Are you SO FKING DENSE you really think you can prove Trump right? YES the baby is an AMERICAN FKING CITIZEN FULL STOP.
Tourist babies happen, it is not a huge drain on our country.
Trump makes up crap on a whim and he has had a hard on against BC for DECADES.
EVEN THOUGH HE COULD LOSE HIS OWN CITIZENSHIP BECAUSE HIS MOM IS FROM SCOTLAND.

@AverageJoe1 saidYou can bitch all you want about individual cases but that doesn't change the FACT JACK that Trump ONLY wants more power, NOTHING to do personally at least I think so, because he has ONE agenda, HOW MUCH MONEY CAN I STEAL FROM THE USA TREASURY?

@sonhouse saidIs it bitching for me to simply ask you a question, a person comes to this country on vacation and has a child and the child becomes an immediate citizen of the United States. Are you so bereft of common sense that you cannot answer such a simple question?

Pretend you are a normal person, being asked this question. Maybe sitting on a park bench feeding the pigeons with a nice fellow who walks up and sits down, and ask you that question.
You might begin your answer with well I am glad you asked me that question…

@AverageJoe1 saidOF COURSE you are OBSESSED, but the actual number of people like that is miniscule compared to our 1/3 of a BILLION population.

We can take a hundred million more and will STILL be less than HALF of India or China.
FKING STOP OBSESSING, You are just re PUKING the PUKE of Trump.
It is NOT healthy for your mind or spirit. If you have either one that is.
Trump has worked you and your ultrarightwingnut budiies into an artificial frenzy based on just the WORDS of Trump, Trump tells you to rape this girl, you go Only the one my Lord?
@AverageJoe1 saidA great point that I don't think was brought up at oral argument:
I think that the present process of becoming a citizen should be revised.
But , I PREDICT that they will bail, it will be too much for the judges, though they know it is too liberal.
Everybody vote, and enjoy watching the arguments on each side, I am not sure of the time.
"History makes something else clear. When the 14th Amendment was ratified in 1868, the U.S. had not yet created the elaborate immigration categories debated today. There was no modern distinction between “lawful” and “unlawful” presence. But Congress had already outlawed the international slave trade. Africans smuggled into the country after that ban were brought here in violation of federal law. Yet their American-born children were citizens, instantly and without controversy, under the 14th Amendment.
That fact undermines modern claims that undocumented presence disqualifies a child from citizenship. Reconstruction lawmakers understood that individuals could reside in the United States in ways the law did not authorize or approve. They did not condition their children’s citizenship on paperwork.

EDIT: Actually it appears Justice Barrett did bring up the cases of slaves illegally brought here and their children.https://reason.com/volokh/2026/04/01/justice-barrett-slavery-and-birthright-citizenship/

@no1marauder saidA good post, but it still begs the question what is your endgame period you have never answered my question, a woman from Romania comes here to see the sites drops of baby, and the baby is a citizen. I want you to give me, not withstanding, Donald Trump, or the constitution itself, if that is common sense.

@AverageJoe1 saidJust to respond to one of your many ridiculous analogys, The baby is a US citizen. Case closed.

@AverageJoe1 saidLOOK UP OBSESSION. You are doing it RIGHT NOW. If there are a million such you have an argument maybe, depends on justice rules but you know god damn good and well there are NOT a million such so what is going on here is a form of racism, you don't even have to KNOW the race, you are doing an incredibly disloyal thing going against the CONSTITUTION, you remember that funny little scrap of paper? That and the 1940 setting precedent that has stood for 85 FKING YEARS.
But…….the question…..
So now TRUMP comes along, doesn't LIKE BC so OF COURSE you being a tried and true Trump propagandist IMMEDIATELY jump on the bandwagon and OF COURSE you have already convinced yourself of just how INCREDIBLY convincing my Lord Trump really is, he is a GENIUS, and thank you my lord for existing.
It seems to me ONLY sociopaths would throw MILLIONS of children in the desert, lost SS#, no jobs available, they are stateless now and just exactly what does your LORD Trump plan to do with them, let me guess, has something to do with the rebuilding of Amazon warehouses no longer needed by Amazon so that 29 million dollar price, Bondi paid ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE MILLION, exactly ONE HUNDRED MILLION over the original sale price, so you OF COURSE could NEVER even understand the concept of corruption but that is just ONE of many such sales, payoffs WAY above the for sale price. BTW, that was OUR money, OUR TAX dollars LOST to GRIFTERS, that money is NOT in the hands of the seller you can bet your ass on that, they secretly turn over such stuff because the KNOW what kind of game is going on and or WAY OK with it, no doubt they get a taste of the green too.
You go, HOW DARE YOU PUT DOWN MY LORD TRUMP. THIS IS DEEPLY OFFENSIVE. RIGHT?
So do you think there is no corruption involved in UAE giving Trump a FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR JET?
THAT HE GETS TO KEEP?
AS A SITTING POTUS.
No biggie, this is the new norm so suck it up libtard.
@no1marauder saidThen, as you suggest that it is slam dunk that birthright citizenship is just right as rain, what is all of the discussion about at Scotus?
