The Supreme Court, obviously. They will just explain how the wording is confusing and doesn’t actually mean birthright citizenship the way we typically do. Fact that they told Trump to start issuing guidance tells me they are going to tailor their ruling to that guidance.
Actually, the way they worded that decision made it sound like they wanted to hear how they would go about doing this…“legally”. Meaning, what rationale could they come up with, that wouldn’t violate the 14th amendment. They are willing to entertain arguments to that effect, but aren’t just going to sign off on a direct violation of the Constitution.
This latest outline from the Trump administration doesn’t do that. It just elaborates on what they would do, if they were allowed to proceed, anyway. But it says nothing about how they would actually circumvent the 14th amendment.
