This guy will literally say anything if he thinks it will get him what he wants.
He has a couple of very specific jobs for the Republicans.
-
He's the token minority so that the GOP can point and say; "SEE WE'RE NOT RACIST, WE HAVE THIS GUY IN THE PRIMARY."
-
He's moving the crazy line further out. He's saying more and more outlandish things, so that the other insane assholes that are running, seem positively nice in comparison. Even though, compared to actual sentiment of the public at large, they are beyond deranged.
I am sure this asshole is well paid by the GOP.
I think he and his advisors are severely underestimating the entrenched racism of their base, especially the far right wing that he is trying to court. Oh yeah, and he’s also a Harvard and Yale educated lawyer who attended school on scholarship from a Soros. And he’s Hindu, and a vegetarian.
Duh, he's a Republican.
Saying bullshit has a funny way of becoming meaning bullshit, just look at trump

An immigrant, in a country of immigrants, deciding he doesn't like those that came after... 🤷🏼♂️
In the “Law and Order” party, but thinks you can override the Constitution by executive order
They are also strict constitutionalists except all the places they are strictly not.
Truly the story of America, but not in the good way.
Nah he isn’t an immigrant, he’s all ours. His parents are immigrants though. He’s as American as chili on spaghetti.
Nah he isn’t an immigrant, he’s all ours. His parents are immigrants though.
So he's trying to get rid of the way of getting citizenship as he got his?

A truly spoilt bastard. Pulling up the ladder.
He’s a pawn getting paid to throw his own kind under the bus. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a actual deal made for him to run as the token immigrant, with specific dollar amounts.
You do realize that birthright citizenship is almost entirely nonexistent in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Austrailia, right?
at no point in the history of america has "but yurop does it" been a suitable justification for a policy. We are specifically trying to be better than europe
Failing spectacularly I might add.

I m French and this is complete bullshit . If you re birth in France you are French at your 18 birthday.
This was originally meant to be a reply to a guy down the thread, but they deleted it before I posted so it showed up here. You can find the context down there too!

This is the same Republican party that vehemently defends the 2nd Amendment whose definition is much more widely "contested", despite having much more real and dire consequences than the 14th.
He's such a little shi*. The Martin Shkreli of politicians. Though the GOP has a number of those.
You know what else is contested? The second gd amendment.
"Vote for me! I'm an asshole too!"
How about we deport this shitbag instead?
Yeah no way he is a citizen. I WANT HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE
Long form.
In triplicate.
Not that I don't think he actually believes in this bullshit but he's just saying whatever he can to get that easy money from the party of White Supremacy.
Imagine if the brown man promising to deport US citizens was a Democrat, how Republicans would react.
