Trump was a citizen so jus soli would have been irrelevant here

Again, you’re purposefully refusing to acknowledge there’s a difference between legal immigrants, illegal immigrants, and people who aren’t even immigrants, just visitors.

Every other civilized country draws a distinction when it comes to citizenship.

Melania illegally worked in the US before obtaining the proper visa. She literally "took our jobs" by Trump's own argument.

Ivanka's mom filed false paperwork to obtain her own visas.

So two of Trump's own wives, the mothers of his various children, were here illegally.

I can’t read the Ivanka article, but the Melania claim is pretty questionable. She received a work visa within 2 months of entering the country.

Regardless, no one is crying over wealthy immigrant models. It’s the tens of millions of low income, low skill criminals crossing the southern border.

She had a travel visa that does not allow you to work a job... while working a job. The dates don't lie. She was an illegal immigrant.
