1. Because most people understand NBC to mean “born on U.S. soil as a U.S citizen” (putting aside anchor babies for the moment), so it wouldn’t matter if his parents were citizens at the time of his birth;
2. Because there’s no reason to think that his parents ever lived outside of the U.S., much less gave up their citizenship in the process of doing so, unlike Cruz, whose parents we know for a fact were living outside of the U.S. for years before and after the time of his birth;
So then if Trump's (or any candidate's) parents weren't citizens, then how is Donald or any other candidate not an anchor baby?????
