Scarborough: Republicans Are for Birthright Citizenship and Immigration When It Serves Their Purposes

‘America is a creedal nation’

EXCERPT:

FRENCH: “You have people melting down over a constitutional amendment that became part of the Constitution in 1868, and over a hundred years of firmly established precedent. and then you take all of that ignorance, all of the brushing aside of everything that Ronald Reagan ever stood for, all of the brushing aside of what conservatives ever stood for, and the cherry on top was when they needed a striker to beat Belgium, Donald Trump and the whole MAGA right got involved and lectured us about not being against helping this striker who was only on the team because his mother from Britain couldn’t fly home because she was too pregnant. He grew up in London and yet he was an American because... birthright citizenship. So they're for birthright citizenship when it serves their purposes, they’re for immigration when it serves their purposes, they’re against immigration when it does not."
