Dem Hopes ‘They F*ck’ Trump ‘To His Face’ in Now-Deleted Post on Bombshell Supreme Court Day

Representative Susie Lee (D-NV) deleted an F-bomb-riddled post in which she hoped the Supreme Court would “F*ck (President Donald Trump) to his face” as it considers birthright citizenship.

Trump signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship during the first days of his second term, which was promptly blocked by a lower court in a ruling that was upheld by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

On Tuesday, news broke confirming that Trump would be attending arguments in the case — Trump v. Barbara — in person at 10 a.m. on Wednesday.

Rep. Lee — who made Trump’s Supreme Court picks an issue in her campaign — reacted to the news with a profane X/Twitter post intimating that his attendance is “So f*cking f*cked up” and that “I’ll pray they f*ck him to his face. Sorry, I say f*ck a lot these days.”

The post was deleted in fairly short order.

The president was asked about the case Tuesday afternoon, and revealed he was going to attend the arguments as he went on a lengthy riff on the case:

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Because I have listened to this argument for so long, and this is not about Chinese billionaires or billionaires from other countries who all of a sudden have seventy-five children or fifty-nine children in one case or ten children becoming American citizens. This was about slaves. And if you take a look, slaves — we’re talking about slaves from the Civil War. And if you take a look at when it was filed, all of this legislation, all of this — everything having to do with birthright citizenship, it was at the end of the Civil War.

The reason was it had to do with the babies of slaves and the protection of the babies of slaves. It didn’t have to do with the protection of multimillionaires and billionaires wanting to have their children get an American citizenship. It is the craziest thing I’ve ever seen. It’s been so badly handled by legal people over the years. If you look at the original birthright citizenship papers, they all happened right after the Civil War. The reason was it had to do with the babies of slaves.

And hopefully, it’s going to say — because our country is being scammed. We’re getting all of these people. They’re selling the rights to them. People are making a big living, getting hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars from bringing people in and saying, “Congratulations. Your whole family is going to be a citizen of the United States of America.” That’s not what it was for. It wasn’t for billionaires bringing people in or family in. It was for the children of slaves.

And what you really have to do — and I don’t think the lawyers talk about it as much — look at when the Civil War ended and look at the date of when this was enacted.
