Well, actually all of South Florida has a lot of this, but if you go down to South Florida and particularly back in the 2018 sort of period, South Florida was a magnet for Russian women
who would come to South Florida and stay in Trump-branded properties.
It was very popular to go and stay in Trump's branded properties, have a baby in the United States who would come pregnant, and then their children would be American citizens.
Birth tourism to South Florida, and the town I was trying to remember is called Sunny Isles Beach.
It's like the sort of magnet for this stuff.
Sunny Isles Beach was like a magnet.
They call it Little Russia because there are so many Russian women who have come, stayed in Trump properties, had a baby in the US, and the baby's a citizen.
It's like a thing.
So birth tourism, when that was happening, was not a problem.
We never heard a peep from MAGA, from the right, from the Tea Party movement, from any of these that are about this rampant birth tourism, which carried with it the possibility that some of the Russian mothers and fathers
particularly the mothers, might have also been here potentially doing espionage.
We had no idea.
Their loyalty was literally to Mother Russia.
And then they had an American child, which gives all sorts of rights and privileges to the family.
This happened all the time.
It only became a problem when the mothers are Somali or Haitian.
or Nigerian or Mexican or Guatemalan, suddenly it's a problem.
I wonder if they have the same feelings about the white South Africans who they invited to come here, who they're giving like an Insta pass to citizenship.
There are people who've come, who've been in this country for 25, 30 years,
They're more American than Donald Trump, who's been here, what, two generations?
