Abstract

President Trump recently claimed just prior to the midterm elections that he has the authority to issue an executive order to do away with the Fourteenth Amendment’s provision for natural born citizenship presumably to discourage illegal immigration for the purpose of affording a U.S. birth. That claim is simply false. It reflects a serious lack of understanding of what constitutions do or how our constitutional order works.
