The Administration's statements aren't limited to naturalized citizens. It claims that dual citizenship is illegal without limiting that to dual citizens who are naturalized U.S. citizens. What percentage of dual citizens were born in the U.S.?

I marvel at how fickle and incompetent Trump is. He actually said Zelensky must take the deal on Trump’s terms by Thursday or "fight his little heart out", then said that wasn't his final offer. It's bizarre.

"It's kind of unfair, when someone's only been there 9 months, to put it all on him," referring to the economy and Trump. Please remember that this is not a matter of redirecting the economy from bad to good. The U.S. economy was the envy of the world when Trump took office.

Quoting Ronald Reagan is now "egregious behavior." DJT is no conservative. He's nuts, and he's happy for you to pay for his tantrums.
