The latest effort by
liberals, conservatives, elitists from the political parties, and those
bastions of truth also known as the liberal media, to stop the Trump machine,
is underway. It seems Trump's distain
for politicians and the media feeding off the politicians threatens the annual
revenue of those parasites making money off the functions of the government, as
in paid political commercials.
They lost their minds over
Trump's promise to deport babies of illegal immigrants born in the USA . Trump was condemned for being a fool, for
ignoring the Constitution, for trampling over the Fourteenth Amendment to the
Constitution, and for being an idiot.
Just who is the idiot?
In truth, Amendments to
the Constitution get passed for the very reason of clarifying the impact or
extending the scope of the Constitution.
In our history, there have been just twenty-seven Amendments to the
Constitution.
Ironically, the most
recent one (27th) blocking congress from giving a pay raise for members passed
in 1992 though introduced by James Madison way back in 1789. It took 202 years, 7 months, and 12 days to
get the three quarters of the states to approve it.
As for Trump and the 14th
Amendment to the Constitution,
it was ratified on July 9, 1868, and granted citizenship to “all persons
born or naturalized in the United
States ,” which included former slaves
recently freed.
Over 147 years old, it
passed after the Civil War in an effort to protect the right of freed slaves to
gain citizenship since many slaves did not have documentation on births. This was not intended to be the basis for
immigration policy or illegal immigration activity, just a guarantee of
equality for newly freed citizens.
Illegal immigration was
not a problem back then yet media mouthpieces jumped all over Trump for
suggesting he would deny citizens Constitutional protection. Trump made the important point that illegal
immigrants come to America
to give birth to take advantage of a law never meant to address the problem.
We are rewarding a crime
with automatic citizenship, a process called "birth right"
citizenship. These kids become anchor
babies to allow illegal aliens to remain, especially under proposals from the
Obama administration. Amend the
Constitution and fix the law.
We would be protecting
those millions of legal immigrants who often waited years to come here legally.
Here is the entire text of
Amendment XIV.
