A columnist at PJMedia has offered a solution to the problem facing America because of Tuesday’s Supreme Court’s “birthright citizenship” ruling.

That said the 14th Amendment guarantees U.S. citizenship to babies born in the “birth tourism” industry, in which pregnant women come to the United States in order to give birth and give to their children all the benefits of U.S. citizenship.

President Donald Trump had issued an executive order halting that, based on an interpretation that that was not what the authors of the amendment wanted, a perspective with which a number of high court justices agreed.

However, a majority of the justices on the bench took the Democrat position that citizenship is guaranteed to those babies.

Fine, said the commentary by Athena Thorne. But what would happen if Trump would ban that population from entering the U.S.?

After all, “Under the U.S. Code, the president has broad authority over who may enter our country. Specifically, 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f) (INA Section 212(f)) says: Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate,” the report notes.

That would solve the problem allowed by the Supreme Court, which said, “that any basic skank who can sneak onto American terra firma and give birth is automatically the parent of a U.S. citizen, with all the rights and benefits that implies.”

The suggestion is that since the president has wide latitude to define a “class” of aliens and restrict their entry if he determines it serves the U.S. interests, “e.g., public health, welfare, preventing ‘birth tourism’ or resource strain,” “Trump would absolutely be within his rights to pen-and-phone an end to the pregnant invasion — perhaps even the child-bearing-age invasion.”

The column noted during Trump’s first term, Trump “took action to ban entry from terrorist-sponsoring nations” and won in court.

In fact, the commentary noted, “Seriously, the president could do this as fast as White House counsel can write it up.”
