If true, this could give Trump a hammer to pound on the “anchor baby” controversy and get some changes made.

The 14th Amendment was passed to eliminate citizenship challenges to freed slaves, not to hand out U.S. citizenship to trespassers and tourists.

I believe Congress could pass a “clarifying resolution” and fix the problem overnight?

This is correct. After passage of the 14th amendment, many natives born in the US were not citizens of the US...they were citizens of their sovereign tribes/nations, unless otherwise specified by treaty. It took an act of Congress to declare by statute that all native Americans were citizens of the US also.

Congress can simply change the law by statute....whether or not they have the testicular fortitude is another matter.

Maybe. Something like limiting it to children born here of legally present permanent residents.
