What do you make of Trump denying citizenship to military babies born overseas?

I suppose it might help Japan with their labour shortage.

    there should be no such thing as anchor babies

    if the parents are Not legal Neither is the Baby

  • Why should a Green Card Holder military serviceman marying a foreigner looking for a free ticket to USA have birth right citizenship or automatic citizenship for children they may have together or the foreign spouse already had with someone in that foreign country. Just like all permanent residence Legal Immigrants in the US, they would need a number of years residency in any US territory or States, at least 7 years I believe, to Apply for US citizenship.

    If the child was concieved in any US territory then the child gets automatic citizenships since the father or mother is a legal permanent residence serving in the military.

    A US citizen (natural or naturalized) who marries a foreigner looking for an easy means of legality into the US & conceiving a biological child with that foreigner, the child deserve a birth right citizenship just as missionaries or citizens living abroad having children in foreign lands. Children that are not biologically the military service man/woman US citizen's child doesn't deserve automatic citizenship. The child or children would have to apply for citizenship after a number of years residency in any US territory or States.

    You don't have a source. I was stationed in Yokosuka Japan and have no idea what you are talking about. Trump didn't start anything that isn't already law on US military bases overseas.

    By military babies, do you really mean half-kneegrow half-Japanese babies? This is part of the price Japan has paid for losing WWII. At this point, the government of Japan should simply tell the US that it will not permit darkies at Okinawa anymore. Enough already.

    Maybe they'll just ignore him since he's getting crazier each month.
