Ronny Chieng Highlights How ‘American’ It Is for Trump to Push FIFA to ‘Pardon’ a U.S. Soccer Player Who Gained Citizenship by Birth

‘Last week, Trump was at the Supreme Court trying to end everyone’s birthright citizenship’

RUSH EXCERPT:

CHIENG: “What a twist. Last week, Trump was at the Supreme Court trying to end everyone’s birthright citizenship. This week, he personally intervened to protect one specific birthright citizen, previously known as a citizen. And you might think that’s hypocritical, but real Americans know this is actually the most American immigration policy ever. The policy is this:
[Bleep] All immigrants, conceptually. Just not the specific immigrants we need to do the jobs we don’t want to do, like picking crops or creating vaccines or playing soccer. And maybe you don’t like that about America. Maybe you don’t like how we’ll bend the rules when it’s in our interest, or exploit all of the advantages of immigrants while vilifying them. But that’s what makes you guys haters on the sidelines, while we stay winning.”
