Trump calls America 'stupid' after abruptly leaving Supreme Court debate
Source: The Independent UK
President Donald Trump has branded the U.S. stupid after attending Supreme Court arguments over his administration's efforts to end birthright citizenship.
He left halfway through the proceedings, and several key justices, including three Trump appointed to the nine-member bench, appeared skeptical of the administrations arguments to block automatic citizenship.
After the arguments wrapped, Trump ranted on Truth Social, writing, We are the only country in the world STUPID enough to allow Birthright Citizenship!
Thirty-two other countries, most of them in the Western Hemisphere, have birthright citizenship laws that are substantially similar to the U.S., according to the Pew Research Center. Another 50 or so countries have more limited variations of birthright citizenship.

After arguments concluded, he said the U.S. is the only Country in the World STUPID enough to grant citizenship at birth, despite more than 30 other countries with similar policies.
Several key justices, including three Trump appointed to the nine-member bench, appeared skeptical of the arguments from U.S. solicitor general D. John Sauer. A decision is expected by June or July.
No sitting president has attended Supreme Court arguments in the nations history, and Trumps unprecedented attendance raised critical questions over his antagonistic relationship with a judiciary that has repeatedly ruled against him.

He doesn't get his way he cries.

(196,520 posts)Around 30-35 countries, primarily in the Americas, offer unconditional birthright citizenship (jus soli), granting automatic citizenship to almost anyone born on their soil, regardless of parental nationality. The United States, Canada, Mexico, and most of South/Central America have this policy

(22,221 posts)Just like they didn't to Adolph Hitler, March / April 1945, directing the movements of phantom German armies that no longer existed. No one was brave enough to tell him. Same with Trump. Except instead of being taken out and shot, Trump's minions would lose their meal ticket. Their momentary ride on a gravy train that will end shortly. Hope they've got exit plans. They'll need them.

So you just take your ball and toodle on back to your gaudy White House.
