Trump’s Utterly Absurd Take On Birthright Citizenship Involves Walking Infants
HuffPost
The president-elect appeared very confused about how American citizenship is conferred.
In a freewheeling interview with NBC News Sunday, President-elect Donald Trump offered a head-scratching explanation for his plan to wage an attack on birthright citizenship.
“Did you know, if somebody sets a foot — just a foot, one foot, you don’t need two — on our land, congratulations, you are now a citizen of the United States of America,” Trump said, when discussing birthright citizenship.
“Yes, we’re going to end that, because it’s ridiculous,” he added.
Trump appeared to describe a hypothetical scenario in which a woman would give birth to an infant who — either capable of walking at birth or helped along by someone eager to win a bet — would set one foot on American soil and the other in either Mexico or Canada.
It is also possible Trump was imagining an infant hopping or standing on one leg. Neither scenario is plausible.
