RE:”I don't know what President Trump has in mind for his proposed executive order regarding birthright citizenship,...”

Nothing, we will probably never hear him speak of it again.

The election is over.

.....the easiest way to treat those claiming birthright citizenship: Pres Trump could order passport applicants
to submit (A) a U.S. birth certificate, and, (B) evidence that at least one parent was a U.S. citizen.....

I like it.

Let’s start by not using the leftist’s terminology. “Birthright citizenship” sounds like a good thing to those who are not informed on the matter. “Anchor baby fraud” would be a better term.

For example, he could order passport applicants to submit not only a U.S. birth certificate, but also evidence that at least one parent was a U.S. citizen.

Both my parents were legal immigrants and non-US citizens when I was born. I am a US citizen by birth and my only allegiance is to the US. The idea is to prevent illegal aliens from having anchor babies.

"This order would of course immediately be challenged in the courts and probably stayed until ruled upon by the Supreme Court."

Where the court will reject the practice and rule that being born in the US does grant citizenship.

The procedure to prompt a challenge is fine, but there is no real argument about what the Constitution says here. The words are clear and have meaning.
