And in no way should you become an American citizen on that basis.
That's preposterous.
In fact, to be really clear, the children of legal immigrants should not become American citizens in the United States.
That wasn't the subject of the debate yesterday.
But just because you're here on some sort of temporary legal basis doesn't mean you should be entitled to an American citizen as a child.
That's crazy to me.
That's crazy.
American citizenship should be for the children of American citizens.
If you want a child to become an American citizen, then go through the process of becoming a naturalized American citizen.
If you really want to look after the wellbeing of this country, then that's the way you would do it.
