Trump and Republicans' goal: end birthright citizenship. Discuss.

That is where this whole thing is heading. If your parents were born in the "wrong" country, your citizenship will be denied.

I am sure they are also working on ways to revoke citizenship from those deemed "unworthy"--either native-born or naturalized people whose ethnicity they don't like.

I don't want to be the canary in this coal mine, but I see what I see.

I'm sure that they would and will do anything to get rid of anyone who's not straight, white and bleeds red, white and blue.

Anyone remember the name Orly Taitz? If not, then Melania Knavs?

It's not your status as an immigrant. It's what you say once you're here.
