How does she not meet the requirements, isn't just about anyone born in the US a US citizen by birth? (I said just about anyone as I don't know for example if foreign diplomats give birth in the US, if their child is a USC.)

Filthy lowlife is right.
It's going to take a long time for the country and for the nature of political discourse to recover from this man.

This article is about Hair Furor & showers, but - I hasten to add - not the kind of showers mentioned in the Steele Dossier.

Trump campaign legal adviser Jenna Ellis retweeted an op-ed written by law professor John Eastman in which he argues Harris is “not entitled to birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment as originally understood,” citing a fringe legal theory holding that children of temporary visitors to the country are not conferred citizenship even if they are born here.

Re: President Trump
They're basically one step away from calling her an Anchor Baby.
Even though both her parents came to the US completely independently as LPRs and met in college.
I said on here yesterday that I have already had to correct a work colleague on this point, because they thought that a child born of 2 immigrants was not eligible. I directed them to Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the US Constitution.

Re: President Trump
Most of you have made up your mind. For those who haven’t, the prosecutor will close with what she opened with. The United States is “in tatters.” Look around at the shuttered businesses, the hospitals stuffed with those struggling to breathe, Americans at each other’s throats. This president offers you no way out. You alone can show him the door.
Great piece in the NYT this morning.

Re: President Trump
Perhaps we should start a thread "The USA is ****ed because"
I guess every post would mention Trump.
There again I don't want posters thinking I'm a smug Canadian laughing our asses off at the state of things south of us and until they get their shit together we cant even come down and boost the economy by buying cheap gas, milk, cheese and other stuff.

His younger brother is in a NY Hospital, apparently seriously ill, but no details as to why.
