Iamgrey5:That is CNN programs you to do, to play the black card all the time when race has nothing to do with the topic of discussion. When you are a white man and you see a black man who is a thief, will you refrain from calling him a thief because you don't want to be called a racist. Trump has called many white people rogue and has called many blacks rogue, people like Trump don't care about skin colour. That is not racism. Antisemitic? Come on, I can't believe you are saying this. His son-in-law is Jewish and he's been the closest US president to Netanyahu and Israel. Trump might be an Islamophobe though but racist hell no, antisemitic hell no. I mean the guy is supported by prominent non-uncle Tom blacks like Ben Carson and Kanye West and CNN says he's racist. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Richdad50: Hmmm.....in summary... if you need a strong country then you need a dictator. And people still wonder how Adolph Hitler got soo many supporters. It is fathers like you that run their families with iron fists ...all muscle...or maybe you grew up under such.. I guess you would prefer a coup and Nigeria be run by a strongheaded take no nonsense do as I say General...that's progressive for you...the way forward. |

wow..a lot of ignorance on display..maybe y'all should read about the US constitution before opening those mouths research is always good and like republicans,most of you would rather go with alternate facts..just read 1st |

Originalsly:lol. How can you imply that Trump is a dictator. America is not North Korea, not Libya, not Nigeria. In America the law/constitution reigns supreme not the President. Americans insult Trump (the most powerful president in the world) to his face everyday, how many Nigerians could insult ordinary Abacha to his face |

AZeD1:I don't think you are fully right here though I stand to be corrected. Those babies born there have dual citizenship, Nigeria and US, and it will now be their choice to claim any of the citizenship for their gain if they started working. Say they grew up and started working in Nigeria, don't expect them to pay 30% tax to the US for also being US citizen, they can simply work in Nigeria and claim their Nigerian citizenship without any obligation to the US. Just like footballers, Dele Ali, David Alaba and co, they have dual citizenship, but they all chose to claim the citizenship of choice which are UK and Austria and they totally owe Nigeria no business even if for example say Nigeria receives tax from their citizens working abroad like the US. It's all about diplomacy and choice when you have dual citizenship. |

Iamgrey5:You know nothing. Blacks loving Trump has increased. Go to Instagram and not Twitter. Many are dumping Democrats and supporting trumps. I gave lots of videos of blacks,Hispanics supporting Trump. It is the media that painted him bad. Those calling Trump a racist are the one calling Kanye west a token negro for supporting Trump,so tell me who the racist is? |

kingthreat: So, which one concern you for dis one? What do you mean "earn" it? What exactly does that mean? Abi, you are simply just jealous of those that are doing it because you no fit do am yourself? Get your wife or girlfriend pregnant and go to US and do am yourself. Don't get mad at those people that are doing it. It is not only Africans doing it. They come from all countries - China, India, Europe, Brazil, everywhere. The number is not as big as Trump says it is. He is only exaggerating for political purposes. There are more important things for "real" Americans to worry about. And this is not number 1 or 2 or even 3 on the scale. Trump is only stoking racism and bigotry. He really does NOT care about the real America or anyone, for that matter. He cares only about himself. He lies. He cheats. He is selfish. He uses people. He uses racist and inflammatory rhetoric. He does not give a damn about you or anyone from any sh*hole country. Any Nigerian who supports Trump is just ignorant of the facts. If the baby's parents are Norwegian or Swedish, German, British or any "White" or European country, then it is OK with Trump but if they are from Africa, Mexico, Singapore or Malaysia, then Trump has a problem. He doesn't want them. This is all Trump politics. It has nothing to do with love of America. Wake your ass up and smell the coffee or the cocoa. You are being tricked and lied to. |

bongolistik:Citizenship by birth is not a choice. The US is the only country I know of that requires it's citizens working outside the country to pay tax so any child born in the US would have to pay taxes to the US irrespective of where they work and reside unless they renounce their US citizenship. 1 Like |

Amendments may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a convention of states called for by two-thirds of the state legislatures.[1] To become part of the Constitution, an amendment must be ratified by either—as determined by Congress—the legislatures of three-quarters of the states or state ratifying conventions in three-quarters of the states.[2] The vote of each state (to either ratify or reject a proposed amendment) carries equal weight, regardless of a state's population or length of time in the Union.

Re: Donald Trump To Terminate Birthright Citizenship by Nobody: 4:07pm On Oct 30, 2018 |
temmytanny:They blocked a lot of his agenda because he was a radical socialist trying to 'Fundamentally change the USA' which is the whole point of the congress dummy! To make sure the president never gets to powerful and turns into a tyranny. If Obama was a skilled moderate democrat politician like a Bill Clinton, he would have still been able to negotiate and politic with Republicans to get a lot done despite the typical hostility..this is something every President faces and should be able to play the game but Obama was an arrogant man who saw Republicans as beneath him and constantly tried to circumvent them with executive orders. Why are you now mad that Trump is doing the same? Don't debate politics with me boy. You will lose big time. 1 Like |

jagbajantus: Thank you for this. Most Nigerians just love to hate, they don't want their fellow country men to progress. They want them to be on the same frustrated level so they can rant about the hardship of the country and evil government of Buhari led APC. They won't make any move and they still hate and envy those that makes the move. Some were even happy a nairalander visa wasn't approved. The thread hit front page this morning. These are the same people that will tell you to give your life to Christ so hell fire won't be your next destination and their counterparts that screams Allah Akbar.

In as much as this is controversial and I have some of my close relations carrying American passport as a result of this issue. I still think its a good decision. Ever since Trumps presidency, I have appreciated all his hard immigration issues like Visa denial. Africans really need to look more homeward, and without no alternative than to develop our place. All these running away won't help us. We must be here and fight it out with the bad guys that have messed the systems up. We have allowed them get away with a lot of things. We stay here, fight it out with them. So that the evil people that make up the system are totally uprooted. There are still very huge potentials for this continent!! So let's stay and fight it out instead of running away. So thumbs up to Trump. It is to our gain. It will reduce brain drain and taking our bests. 1 Like |

drnoel: Sir, it's been 22 months since Trump's presidency ordinary Obamacare, the Republicans in Congress couldn't change or amend a large portion, now you think it is feasible for the 14th amendment in the constitition to be changed within 18 months...it doesn't work like that... ...if this eventually happen (big if), then it means any future POTUS can use executive order to change the constitution and we should remember it is the constitution which has restrained past presidents and now is curtailing Trump from doing rogue or being a dictator... |

It's all hogwash. He cannot accomplish this with just an executive order. He needs to change the 14th amendment in the US constitution. He's trying to deflect people from the upcoming elections. |

TheShopKeeper: Well I did say minimum and the 18 the amendment is just one of those things the repubs have wanted altered a long time. Time will tell. What I wrote is just a sum up, it doesn't have to happen exactly that way but I bet he will have this controversy eclipse the re-election. |

temmytanny: Shorrop there, what do you know about the 14th amendment? This was meant to make African American former slaves WHO WERE BORN IN THE US to become full US, citizens..... it was not meant to grant citizenship to just anyone who bore a child in the US. This is why he will win at the supreme court. You think the man is stupid as CNN has made everyone believ? U wait n see |
