Vic Mensa exposes the contradiction in Trump’s birthright citizenship stance by highlighting his own family’s German ancestry.
Vic Mensa just called out the hypocrisy in Donald Trump’s crusade against birthright citizenship, and the rapper didn’t hold back with his criticism.
After the Supreme Court upheld the 14th Amendment on June 30, 2026, striking down Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship, Mensa posted a video response that went straight for the jugular about Trump’s own family history.
“Trump attacking of birthright citizenship is funny when that’s the only reason he’s an American in the first place,” Mensa said in the video. “Your a– is not Chippewa, or Ogalala Su. You motherf—ers is German.”
The rapper then broke down the genealogy that Trump apparently wants to ignore.
Trump’s grandfather, Frederick Trump, came from Bavaria, and Trump’s father became an American citizen specifically because of birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment.
Mensa’s point was crystal clear: if Trump wants to end the policy, he should relinquish his own citizenship and move back to Bavaria.
The rapper went deeper into what he sees as the real motivation behind the push to eliminate birthright citizenship.
“It’s just another way to target Black and brown mothers,” Mensa explained. “Weaponize the police state, playing on their fear of great replacement to stop an irreversible demographic shift in America.”
Trump’s response came through Truth Social, where he called the Supreme Court’s decision “too bad for our country” and urged Congress to “start TODAY” on passing legislation to dismantle birthright citizenship.
He characterized the policy as both expensive and unfair, continuing his long-standing opposition to the constitutional protection that’s been in place since 1868.
