One branch of my family got to N. America from France in the late 1600’s in what became Virginia. The other branch came from Ireland in 1816. Now, trump himself is a first generation American thru his mom’s side. She came from Scotland. His father’s side came from Germany. I think it was his great grandfather but I could be wrong.
I am a citizen of America. If trump has a problem with that he can go F&ck Himself sideways with cholla cactus.

Call me crazy, call me foolish, but I just do NOT trust DJT and his minions who praise and attempt to emulate dictators Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Xi Jinping while simultaneously denigrating the elected leaders of most of our NATO allies and trading partners. Trump’s word means nothing.

I’m surprised he didn’t authorize Musk to fire everyone in the Census Bureau. That would have fit better with his grand project, which is to eliminate the federal government entirely so that the only thing left would be Trump himself in all his regal glory.

My only argument is the sideways, given a long enough cholla stem I’m certain he could follow your command (but I doubt he would) but sideways with is fat but and short arms would not be physically possible.
Unconstitutional.
BUT how is the SCOTUS going to dance around “whole number of Persons”?
