I doubt he cares about actually ending birthright citizenship, he cares about being seen to be ending it. He's all about image, the worse the better. If the courts prevent it, or a later administration undoes his order, that's their problem, not his.

Well supreme court will allow parts of it to go through. Like children of unauthorized immigrants.

But, I'm gonna be optimistic and say that I think children legal immigrants will have birthright citizenship.
