President Trump is not ending birth right citizenship, because it is not a right. You can't end a right that never existed. The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America was written to ensure that the offspring of freed slaves would be citizens of the United States of America. That amendment was neither written for, nor has any language, granting permission to illegally cross the border in month #9, give birth, and get free housing, free healthcare, free food, free [fill in the blank] benefits from dozens of welfare programs, paid for by We The People.

Read the writings of the then representatives that wrote and passed that constitutional amendment. You either did not read the amendment, or you are lying by omission, to the words "...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...". Illegal aliens are not subject to the jurisdiction, simply because they walked in, whereas slaves were. Further: "...are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Illegal aliens do not reside in the United States of America, any more than if you strolled into Mexico and claimed that is where you reside. The Fourteenth Amendment was written as part of the Reconstruction program to guarantee equal and civil rights to black citizens. When the Supreme Court hears arguments, and interprets the language of the United States Constitution, they evaluate the intention of the law makers that created the laws and constitutional writings, in order to make rulings based on what those people intended. And those people wrote that the amendment was intended for freed slaves. They said so (and wrote so) in various speeches and writings. My putting that information into my comment is not me saying so. It is me reporting what the actual authors wrote and said. It is absurd to believe that the passing of the Fourteenth Amendment was intended for people to break into our country to gain citizenship.
