Nancy Mace said the quiet part out loud.
If the President has to be born here, why do we let people born somewhere else write our laws, sit on our courts, and lecture us about “our democracy”?
The Constitution already says the Commander in Chief has to be a natural-born citizen. Makes sense. The person with the nuclear codes should not have a backup passport and a second allegiance.
Mace wants that same standard for Congress, federal judges, and Senate-confirmed officers. She named names: Ilhan Omar. Shri Thanedar. Pramila Jayapal. All born overseas. All sitting in the House. All acting like America is the problem.
Omar’s response was, “Good luck to her.”
I agree with Rep Mace. Foreign born should never be able to hold any type of local or federal office.
