United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898), is a landmark decision[2] of the U.S. Supreme Court which held that "a child born in the United States, of parents of Chinese descent, who, at the time of his birth, are subjects of the Emperor of China, but have a permanent domicile and residence in the United States, and are there carrying on business, and are not employed in any diplomatic or official capacity under the Emperor of China", automatically became a U.S. citizen at birth.[3]

Seems like a salient factor that WKA's parents "have a permanent domicile and residence in the united states and are there carrying on business"?

How does this turn into "who, at the time of his birth, entered the country illegally and committed a crime in entering"?

I'm sure Trump's executive order is sufficient to get it overturned
