Trump's Ambitious Agenda: Birthright Citizenship and Day One Plans

TL;DR Summary
President-elect Donald Trump aims to end birthright citizenship, a right enshrined in the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, through an executive order. However, legal experts argue that such a move is unlikely to succeed, as the president cannot unilaterally change the Constitution. Any attempt to do so would likely face immediate legal challenges and require a new constitutional amendment, which is a highly difficult process.
