Just another attempt to distract and redirect all the inquiries into this man's widening scandal about his endless Conflicts of Interest and his openly declared intention to in essence merge the US Gov't and his private Empire.

It is a distraction, this is the consensus, but I believe it's more too. I believe Trump can't handle the criticism he is getting, and he's not even sworn in yet. He wants to be universally loved and admired. I think his real point is that he wants to revoke citizenship for anyone who criticizes or mocks him and this is step one. This is his way of striking out against what he perceives are anti-American critics. And yes, I do tend to think pessimistically/bottom of the barrel about Trump.

Interesting pt. I wouldn't put it past him to try such a stunt. If he does try to do this it will be challenged.
