Donald Trump’s niece says her grandfather (Donald Trump’s father) was a “workhorse baby.”
Mary Trump, niece of the President Donald TrumpAlso a staunch critic of the president, she said her grandfather was an anchor baby and that the best example of opposition to birthright citizenship was the president himself. Mary mentioned Donald Trump’s father, Frederick Christer Trump, who was born in New York City to German immigrant parents. The post came as the Supreme Court heard arguments over birthright citizenship on Wednesday, with President Trump in attendance. It was the president’s first order in his second term declaring that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not U.S. citizens. As the hearing progressed, Stephen Miller, the architect of Trump’s anti-immigration decisions, quickly posted on social media. “Birthright citizenship means the children of illegal immigrants can vote to tax your children and seize their inheritance,” he wrote.
