In his first televised interview since winning the November election, President-elect Donald Trump revealed sweeping plans for his second term. He expressed intentions to end birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S., calling it "ridiculous." This move would directly challenge the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, raising questions about its legality and potential court challenges.
In the NBC interview, which aired recently, Trump also stated he would issue numerous executive orders on his first day back in office, focusing on economic, energy, and immigration reforms. Among those plans is the controversial decision to pardon individuals involved in the January 2021 Capitol riot, indicating he would expedite review of "independent cases".
While reiterating his commitment to mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, he suggested a collaborative approach with Democrats to assist "Dreamers" — individuals who came to the U.S. as children. He indicated he does not intend to investigate political adversaries like Joe Biden, aiming instead for national success.
The former president also weighed in on other topics, such as possible future aid to Ukraine and his position on NATO, suggesting any continuation would depend on other countries fulfilling their financial obligations.
In another surprising admission, Trump noted that he would not seek to impose restrictions on abortion pills, but added a caveat regarding his guarantee. As his presidency approaches, Trump's diverse and contentious proposals are already sparking debates across the political landscape.
