Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump is tearing through constitutional norms again with his suggestion that he can remove the right to citizenship for children born in the United States of undocumented immigrants. Trump has declared people innocent or guilty, based on his personal views. He has swatted away fundamental notions of due process by calling for the death penalty of people before they were even formally tried in court. Now he appears to want to rewrite the Constitution with the stroke of his pen. Last May, the President suggested that immigrants at the border could be summarily deported without the usual hearings to determine if they deserved asylum or were US citizens wrongly apprehended.
