If a Republican president can make fundamental changes to the Fourteenth Amendment with an Executive Order, a Democratic president could do the same to the Second Amendment.
So when SCOTUS does find for PutinsBJ, CA & all blue states should immediately overturn 2nd amendment on far stronger “militia” grounds & reinstate sensible gun laws
As I posted earlier ... and as have about a zillion legal nerds in America said ... you simply cannot say "you are no longer subject to the laws of America" while at the same time same "oh yeah, you aren't an American, and aren't a tourist, and aren't here on a visa ... but you still have to pay taxes and and drive the speed limit and obey gun laws, etc etc etc" ... etc etc ad infinitum.
These are people who pay taxes, have jobs, contribute to their communities ... there is zero basis / allowance for changing at the whim of a Nazi idiot.
For people who wave around pocket Constitutions like Red Guards brandishing The Thoughts of Chairman Mao, Republicans don't seem to know what's in the Constitution. They're also trying to bypass the 22nd Amendment with legislation to allow The Very Special Boy to run for a 3rd term.
I expect the EO to get shitcanned at the SC. I also expect Trump to utterly ignore that fact. He’ll carry on as if the order is valid and in effect, continuing to issue illegal orders like withholding passports and such. Why? Because who’s going to stop him? He’s going to do whatever he wants because the only remedy is impeachment, and that ain’t happening. Even if by some miracle the House drew up and passed articles, the idea that there are nineteen Republican senators willing to convict is simply risible. This order is going to be the bellwether for the next four years. Either that, or it’s just some Overton Window bullshit to get the ball rolling. Who can tell with this lot.
Himself as well. Fred Trump was only a citizen by birthright, since his parents were illegal immigrants (his father was deported, and then sneaked back in to the country), and Mary McLeod Trump was an illegal immigrant (overstayed her visa).
Not for nothing but why is this fossil still on the bench after 4 decades? Pathetic.
Ah, yes. That drawing Trump made describing the tumor on his prostate.

Wait until Trump starts talking about taking guns away from folks, because it is coming.
I just imagine Kegstand taking Boney Carrot aside and saying, "Amy... are we ze baddies?"
To which Amy replied, "If you're going to put your hand there, could you at least set down the beer?"
Ta, Dok. Blatantly unconstitutional, and reminds me of that awful Stallone Judge Dredd film, where he snarls, "I am the LAW."

"there are some bars SCOTUS can’t fall below."
You'll forgive me if I have my doubts.
Trump's Gestapo ramping up raids Coming to a church near you this weekend. If you see any, be sure to give them the middle finger salute

"The 22nd Amendment only refers to candidates who have not descended into advanced senility"?

Wouldn't this dumb ruling strip the citizenship from Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, too?
And melania, one would hope?
ALL of his children. Which is why it is not retroactive - someone pointed that out to him

Tiffany is Marla’s kid, so she’s legit.
OK, granted., He's got one legal kid. Fuck the rest of them ;-)
