Canada is the only other developed nation that offers this absurdly generous door prize.
In a couple more generations we will no longer share a language with our northern cousins, they will be speaking Mandarin and we will be speaking Spanish

The concept may be a good idea, but it's a little late for an outgoing president to change the Constitution.

BACAH, the 14th amendment didn’t intend to make the children of aliens citizens.
So, the Supreme Court will likely agree with Trump.

It's the wording of the statement.
Originally, slaves were not considered citizens and thus, the 14th amendment cleared that up.
Children in orphanages, with no identifiable parents, even if those parents' were aliens (as in from another country [not outer space] w/o a green card), were covered by this.

Sure, that's today's world but back then, there were a lot of kids in orphanages who had no identifiable parents.
Remember Dicken's Oliver Twist?
The children of illegals (of whom I know many) in California are bastards usually but aren’t in orphanages.

Not if it's an executive order. You don't realize the game is tilted.
DACA should have been able to be ended with an executive order, but it wasn't - was it?
The president is not the supreme ruler of this nation, the reality is, our corrupt judges are.
The only way to reverse it will be at the Supreme Court.

If Trump does this, it takes effect. The illegals can’t use “anchor babies” in the future. The anchor babies won’t grow up to vote.
The only way to reverse it will be at the Supreme Court.
But, it will fail there. The court will not say two illegal alien parents can produce a US citizen.
I think Trump said this as a warning, but I don’t know what will happen.
Addendum: I suppose it will be an executive order.
