Donald Trump's plan to terminate birthright citizenship would have major repercussions for his youngest son, Barron, according to a Facebook post from November 16.
Part of the post's text says that he's not a citizen and has to go because he was born three months before his mother became a US citizen. The claim was reposted thousands of times on TikTok and X, and it garnered hundreds of likes and shares on Threads.
However, for a number of reasons, Barron Trump's citizenship in the United States would not be impacted by his father's proposal to become president. Children born in the nation to at least one parent who is already a citizen or lawful permanent resident would not be covered; it would only cover future births. Both of Barron Trump's parents fulfilled that condition at the time of his birth, as quoted in a report by USA Today.

The proposal has no bearing on Barron Trump's citizenship for several reasons. Although anyone born in the United States has been granted U.S. citizenship for over 150 years, according to Trump's Agenda 47 policy platform, the 14th Amendment has been misinterpreted and only applies to people who were born in the country and are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.
