Following a Supreme Court ruling that upholds birthright citizenship, President Donald Trump reacts by saying the decision is “too bad for our country.” Multiple outlets report that Trump frames the ruling as a political setback for his effort to limit birthright citizenship, but he says his administration will pursue a legislative alternative. He urges Congress to act to end or restrict birthright citizenship through new laws, asserting that lawmakers can “make it up” in Congress. Coverage across outlets describes Trump’s message as calling for a fast legislative process, including that Congress should begin immediately. NBC News, CBS News, and others characterize the Supreme Court decision as striking down one of Trump’s signature initiatives related to citizenship eligibility. The reports are consistent that Trump’s response centers on maintaining the issue through congressional action rather than further court challenges. The outlets also note that Trump communicated his views through public statements and posts, including a message on Truth Social, and reiterated that presidential support would be part of the legislative push.
