Taking away someone's birthright citizenship is literally what Trump wants to be able to do.

Musk was born in South Africa. Why is he a Canadian citizen in the US government?

Musk applied for a Canadian passport through his Canadian-born mother to avoid South Africa's mandatory military service

Oh he wanted to dodge the draft.
