Almost no European countries, and almost no countries in general for that matter, allow people visiting a country, or illegally being in that country, to give birth there and have that child automatically become a citizen.

In Sweden, a child born in Sweden to a visitor or illegal immigrant is NOT automatically a citizen.

You know where else that statement is true? Denmark, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Ireland, Greece. Practically the entire world, actually.

All the aforementioned countries REQUIRE legal status of the parents before the child gets citizenship status, even when born there.

So when the administration 'attacks' birthright citizenship, they are proposing to bring the US in line with the majority of the world and the entirety of Europe.
