Trump Targets Birthright Citizenship with New Policy Push

TL;DR Summary
President-elect Donald Trump reiterated his intention to end birthright citizenship in the U.S., despite the constitutional challenge posed by the 14th Amendment, which grants citizenship to all born in the country. Trump falsely claimed the U.S. is the only nation with birthright citizenship, ignoring countries like Brazil and Canada. He suggested using executive action to achieve this change. Trump also expressed a desire to address the status of Dreamers, immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, and criticized Democrats for hindering immigration reform efforts.
