Donald Trump just took an oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" on the same day he will try to end birthright citizenship, a constitutional right

The Office of President of the United States became vacant today when the RepubliCon leader took office as the “President of Whoever voted for him.”
If you didn’t vote for him, his government is planning to do you harm.
Since his hand wasn’t on the Bible does his oath count? Perhaps it’s his form of crossing his fingers. After all he probably has never read the Constitution.
I recall at least one cabinet candidate hearing where the candidate refused to answer a hypothetical question about what they would do if Trump gave an illegal order, saying that would never happen.
Looks like it's happening on day one.
I agree with birthright citizenship if you’re living here. Many women from othe parts of the world enter the country while pregnant “specifically” to have their baby born here. That shouldn’t be allowed.
Can I ask why you believe this? Who does this hurt? If they are American they will work American jobs and pay American taxes. I’m interested in what you’re seeing here that feels so wrong.
No I am asking about you wanting only birthright citizenship for people already living here and not for pregnant women who come to the United States to have their children born here. I’m wondering what difference you see here.
I said “specifically”meaning they are using the baby as an anchor. Who will raise the child?…The mother of course? Are there other children? She is not legal,where is she raising the child? Not only oppressed people do this, not only the southern border. From all over the world!
Ok, so does this apply to people who are coming here legally but are pregnant and are coming here because they want the baby to be born here? Or just undocumented individuals?
Shouldn't 67 million Americans that didn't vote for Trump have a way to vent their frustration & anger to the appalling, godawful assault on the US democracy. Where is the national ad campaign showing Americans how they can contribute $1+ or respond in other ways? Where is the Democratic leadership?
I wonder if this is why Vivek Ramaswamy is departing DOGE. He has(had?) birthright citizenship I believe. So according to Trump he isn’t an American citizen now.
