You're pointing out an interesting irony.

Trump has pushed to end birthright citizenship (the #14thAmendment right that grants #citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil). If that policy were applied retroactively or to his own family:

a Born in the U.S. (#birthright citizens):
Don Jr., Ivanka & Eric where their mother Ivana was not US #Citizen --- Ivana became a citizen in 1988.

Barron – born in New York (his mother Melania was not yet a citizen when he was born)

One thing that was noticably missing from the birthright citizenship oral argument was discussion of the law before the 14th amendment. Universal birthright citizenship has always been the law, even if it has been illegally applied unevenly: https://open.substack.com/pub/crossingpointspolicy/p/the-heiress-of-congress-spring?utm_source=direct&r=th8gw&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

In one of the biggest cases of the year, Supreme Court justices sounded wary of the government’s argument that the Constitution does not guarantee birthright citizenship. In a first, the president of the United States attended the oral argument. #citizenship #scotus #constitution

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/apr/02/birthright-citizenship-change-american-foundation. "The #UnitedStates’ birth-right #citizenship - which was originally established in very plain, explicit terms in the 14th amendment, & has been reaffirmed twice by #Congress & by more than a century of supreme court precedent - is typical of the #Americas. In the western hemisphere, only a handful of #countries deny automatic full citizenship to infants born within their #borders."
Ending birthright citizenship would change the meaning of America

The supreme court appears poised to reject Trump’s attack on a foundation of US identity. We must hope it follows through
