That's a grossly overbroad and self-serving reading. This Supreme Court will be completely fine with it.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If only we had the standards for the presidency that we have for newly naturalized citizens.
Is it a loophole for presidents too?
So what are we going to call this social score? That totally isn’t a social score.
Social credit system in China sure pissed off a lot of Americans.
But watch us get it under a different name.
They’ll just tie it to your credit score and call it the freedom score.
Smells like what SD in Sweden has been harping on with their 'dålig vandel'. They'd love to have the kinds of power Teh Dånald has.
Nothing of consequence will happen until he starts deporting white people
I thought he already had.
If moral character was a real issue, Trump would have lost his citizenship long ago. Together with most politicians in Washington DC.
ETHNIC CLEANSING
Yes. Though I reckon sooner or later, there'll be plenty of white liberals in the camps.
Trump has never had a "deportation" agenda.
What he's had, from the start, is a "send anyone who opposes me to a concentration camp" agenda.
The "deportation" of immigrants was just a cenvenient base from which to start establishing precedents.
Constitution allows for slave labor. Everyone in a camp is gonna be working for free.
Oh yeah - absolutely.
That's why even as housing costs get further out of reach for more people, the politicians, at the behest of their wealthy cronies and patrons, are criminalizing homelessness. The goal is to essentially recreate 18th century workhouses.
And you'll count yourself lucky if you get sent to a workhouse instead of a foreign torture prison.
Yeap, that's how the new iPhones will be built in America.
Trump should be first. He has the tiny fingers for it.
“[The administration] can’t, on their own, denaturalize people, they still have to go to a federal district court,” said Chisthi.“
Because they give a shit about federal courts
Except SCOTUS has just ruled that defendants have to make a legal claim for each and every act enabled by an unconstitutional law. So yeah Trump can do literally anything he likes.
"[The administration] can’t, on their own, denaturalize people, they still have to go to a federal district court,” said Chisthi. “Denaturalization finally does belong to federal district courts – but they are obviously keen on finding every way they can to denaturalize people they think did not deserve to be naturalized.”
But what the administration can do is drag anyone and everyone they want into the courts, where they'll either have to pay for their own attorney or go it alone, jump through hoops, miss work, incur travel expenses, and of course all the fucking stress that goes along with "this is the beginning of my being disappeared to a foreign gulag."
They don't care whether any specific individual is denaturalized. Some percentage will be, for good or bad "reasons." Some will just give up and leave the country. Some will go on the run. Many will succeed in court, retaining their citizenship, as well as a whole lot of paranoia for the rest of their lives.
All of them will suffer from the process. The suffering is the point.
And those who win in court… have no guarantee that the federal administration won’t round them up again in the future and put them through the entire process again.

If there’s anything that Trump especially excels at, one talent, one skill, he is the absolute master of, it is his fucking hypocrisy. Like any bully, like any fascist, they will use your own rules to beat you down as they, by definition, are in violation of them. When they violate the rules, they are “strong“. When you violate the rules you are “weak“.
It works because they have no shame. And they have no shame because they are psychopaths.
