Donald Trump just dropped a bomb in the 2024 race
0:04
What's going on guys? This is Rob Smith for Explain America, and Donald Trump has just pledged
0:10
to end birthright citizenship for all illegal immigrants should he be elected president in 2024
0:18
This is a big one, and check out what he had to say. As part of my plan to secure the border on day one
0:24
of my new term in office, I will sign an executive order making clear to federal agencies that under the correct interpretation
0:32
of the law, going forward, the future children of illegal aliens will not receive
0:37
automatic U.S. citizenship. My policy will choke off a major incentive for continued illegal immigration
0:45
deter more migrants from coming, and encourage many of the aliens Joe Biden
0:50
has unlawfully let into our country to go back to their home countries
0:56
They must go back. All right, just to put this into context here, so this is a video that was rolled out
1:01
That was part of a video that was rolled out on Trump's Truth Social platform
1:05
as a part of his Agenda 47 videos that the campaign has been rolling out
1:11
with all of their policy proposals on different things like the border wall
1:16
and all of that stuff. So this is huge, okay? And so I wanna give you a little bit more
1:21
of the text from this. So he basically says that Joe Biden
1:26
has launched an illegal foreign invasion of our country, allowing a record number
1:32
of illegal aliens to storm across our borders. This is what he says on the video
1:37
You have to understand that this is factually correct, okay? Over the past two and a half years
1:42
of the Biden administration, there have been an explosion of crossings at that southern border
1:49
And so Trump making this move right now with releasing this video, putting it out there
1:53
and saying that this is going to be one of his policies, what he's doing is he is basically pushing himself
2:01
to the right of pretty much every other candidate that is running for president on the Republican side
2:07
Now, granted, and these are all facts, folks, nobody else that is running for president
2:12
on the Republican side has gone this strongly when it comes to immigration
2:18
when it comes to securing the southern border, but also saying that we're gonna take a policy
2:22
that we have in America, and he is going to end that policy
2:27
should he be elected in 2024. Now, this is a big one
2:32
And I think that what it really does is it puts a lot of pressure on the other candidates
2:39
that are running for president in 2024 to really come out and say something about this
2:44
So as we all know, Trump has been leading in the polls
2:48
basically since he announced that he was going to run for president again
2:52
This is not something that has changed at all in the past
2:57
what is it, six, seven months or so since Trump announced that he's running again
3:02
So what he is doing is he is placing himself in a position
3:07
to where the rest of the people that are running for president on the Republican side
3:12
are going to have to respond to what some people may call a hardline stance
3:18
on the illegal immigration issue that we have in this country. So it's going to be very interesting
3:23
to see how Nikki Haley responds, it's going to be very interesting to see how Ron DeSantis responds
3:29
now that he is officially in the race. It is going to be interesting to see how Tim Scott responds
3:35
But now, again, Trump has been the front runner for this nomination since the moment he announced
3:43
And with this move, what he is doing is he is putting every other Republican
3:48
that is running for president in 2024 on the defensive. They are going to have to answer to this
3:55
they are going to have to say what their policies are going to be when it comes to the southern border
4:02
and also when it comes to the birthright citizenship for illegal aliens that we do have in this country
4:09
So it is going to be very interesting to see how the rest of these Republican candidates respond
4:17
