And you are spot on. Trump properties in FL were famous as short term rentals for drive-thru Russian births.

If I'm honest, I'm not entirely moored to the idea that unconditional birthright citizenship is the only moral path going forward. The US is actually relatively uncommon in this practice in the modern world. But if it's to be changed, it needs to be done constitutionally, and the resulting law must be logical, fair, and cannot be racist in nature. And OBVIOUSLY it must not retroactively change any living person's citizenship status.
