Trump and the regime don't need a rational reason to do anything. They are just going to do what they want because there isn't anyone in a legal position willing to stop them. It will take extraordinary action. Electeds will have to become more afraid of the American people to change.
Operation Second Look, which I believe was started in the first Trump term. It's exactly what it sounds like. They go back and look through naturalization paperwork, trying to find any little thing they can call fraud and therefore basis for stripping citizenship.
For those naturalized he can just claim it's fraudulently obtained, revoke citizenship and deport them. For born citizens, he can take anything they said as evidence they joined a foreign military during wartime (ie, joined Hamas because they criticized Israel) and strip them of citizenship.
