Trump: Birth in the US shouldn't mean automatic citizenship
- 5 years ago
Businessman Donald Trump who's seeking the Republican Presidential ticket says being born in the US shouldn't result in automatic US citizenship.
"A woman gets pregnant, she's nine months, she walks across the border, she has the baby in the United States and we take care of the baby for 85 years, I don't think so. By the way Mexico and almost every other country almost everywhere in the world doesn't have that. We're the only ones dumb enough, stupid enough to have it and by the way this is not just in respect to Mexico. They're coming from Asia to have babies here and all of a sudden we have to take care of the babies for the life of the baby."
