    So a pregnant foreigner should be able to enter a U S. territory, give birth, and then her child is automatically a U.S. citizen? That's what the Chinese are doing - in staggering numbers. And you support that?

    I support that. I don't know when this stopped being about poor people from Central America and started being about rich people from China. But either way, I support it.

    But you also support open borders, unlimited immigration, and a socialized system wherein all wealth is seized from Americans in order to financially support all foreigners who move here, correct?

    Rubio's parents were welcomed, Cuban, refugees. They weren't illegals. There is a huge difference.

    Well close. I support a regulated border with viable mechanisms to allow some legal immigration to serve and support the growth of our economy plus some observation of our international agreements on refugees, and a mixed economy that gives fair bargaining power to workers vis-a-vis owners of capital for the division of the wealth we generate together.

    If neither of his parents were citizens or green card holders than he wouldn’t be a US citizen by birth, per the Trump executive order. Which means he also wouldn’t be eligible to be President.

    It doesn’t just affect children of undocumented immigrants.

    What staggering number exactly? Is it more or less than the Russians buying up Trump condos and having kids?

    Do you support following existing immigration laws?

    The problem is that Democrats recognize all of the 50 million illegals in the U.S. as refugees. Once upon a time Democrats and Republicans agreed upon who is a refugee and Cubans were unanimously recognized by both parties as refugees. That has changed. In fact, Democrats no longer want Cubans because they align with Republicans but DO want to recognize every foreigner in the world who will align with Democrats as "refugees".

    Illegals and other visitors should not be given citizenship just because they were born in the U.S.

    Of course I do, and more than the president does. I also recognize our immigration law is completely dysfunctional and in need of reform by Congress.

    Lol, Leavitt is always saying crazy and stupid ish.

    Did you know that China does not allow any dual citizenship? So, if a Chinese national comes to the US and has a child who is by birthplace a US citizen, the child will not be a Chinese citizen. You think these children are going to form a one-million-strong 5th column of US voters that will vote the Chinese Communist Party interest twenty years from now while being denied citizenship in that country they're supposedly serving?
