Trump Calls The Constitution Stupid For Allowing This

Donald Trump reacted shortly after arguments concluded at the Supreme Court of the United States in the high-profile case over birthright citizenship, criticizing the legal challenge to one of his first-day executive actions.

In a brief post on Truth Social, Trump argued that the United States is alone in allowing automatic citizenship by birth, calling the policy misguided. His message marked his only public comment following the closely watched hearing.

The arguments themselves featured pointed questioning from several justices, including some originally appointed by Trump, who appeared uncertain about the administration’s position. The case centers on whether Trump’s executive order—aimed at limiting birthright citizenship—aligns with long-standing legal interpretations.

Trump was present in the courtroom for part of the proceedings, making a rare appearance as a sitting president during arguments involving his own policy. He remained for roughly the first half, during which Solicitor General D. John Sauerpresented the administration’s case.

During the session, members of the Court signaled hesitation about overturning more than a century of precedent, which has generally held that nearly anyone born on U.S. soil is granted citizenship. The administration maintains that this widely accepted interpretation is flawed.

Chief Justice John Roberts pressed the government’s arguments, suggesting some of the examples offered in support of its position were unusual or unconvincing.

Throughout the hearing, the justices did not directly acknowledge Trump’s presence. Seated in the front row of the public gallery, he observed quietly for most of his time in the courtroom.

A ruling on the case is expected later this year, with a decision anticipated by the summer.
