President Donald Trump called the Supreme Court’s ruling on birthright citizenship a “massive” win for China, congratulating President Xi Jinping in a tongue-in-cheek way, APA reports.
“I would like to congratulate President Xi, and the Great Country of China, on their massive Birthright Citizenship WIN!” Trump said on Truth Social.
Earlier Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled that the 14th Amendment invalidated a previous executive order from Trump, which sought to strip birthright citizenship for children of parents who are unlawfully in the country or visiting under temporary status.
“Children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are ‘subject to the jurisdiction’ of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause,” the Supreme Court ruling states.
