I would rather see him engage congress and try to do it that way.

Don't be scared Kane. LOL
He can't "modify the Constitution". That's already been done many, many times by lawmakers both Federal and State and Local.
Just look at "gun laws" for instance. The Constitution pretty plainly says the right to bear arms "shall not be infringed".
And yet the govt. does just that.
That is an amendment that should either be followed (as is the law and intent of the founders) OR...repealed and replaced.
In the case of "birthright citizenship" (which doesn't really exist), as I so brilliantly explained in my post above...Trump is doing this to trigger a Judge to issue some kind of injunction.
THEN it will go through the legal processes and go to the Supreme Court and the whole idea of ILLEGAL ALIENS giving birth to citizens will be ruled on once and for all.
It's pure genius by Trump. This matter has needed to be looked at by the Supreme Court for over a hundred years since politicians have been changing the meaning of it.
So please don't be afraid. You can be brave and know that the President has a plan to stop the Democrat Party from creating a new voting block of ILLEGAL ALIENS (by the way, San Francisco is allowing ILLEGAL ALIENS to VOTE in the local election for school boards...non-citizens voting in the United States...wow)
