- But after the Supreme Court struck down his unconstitutional executive order to block automatic citizenship to the children of certain immigrant parents, the president seemed to believe he still has a shot in Congress — and then he thanked China’s president.
- “I would like to congratulate President Xi, and the Great Country of China, on their massive Birthright Citizenship WIN!
