President Donald Trump made another shameful blunder during a press conference Friday, incorrectly stating that the Civil War ended in "1869 or whatever" while gloating about the recent Supreme Court ruling on his plan to end birthright citizenship. Americans are now pondering whether the President could pass the citizenship test himself.
Since taking office in late January, the President has cast the 14th amendment, dictating that any person born in the US is automatically granted citizenship, as "stupid." He's claimed that birthright citizenship was meant for children of slaves and not those of migrants who've crossed into the US.
He tried to reiterate that unfounded claim again on Friday, made an embarrassing gaffe when citing the American Civil War. "If you look at the end of the Civil War -- the 1800s, it was a very turbulent time. If you take the end day -- was it 1869? Or whatever." The Civil War ended in 1865.
"The US President couldn't pass the citizenship test," one X user wrote. "Did he even go to school?" another questioned.
"The so-called president of the United States doesn’t know when the Civil War ended. Always reminding us why he’s hiding his college transcript," a third chimed.
It is unclear what point President Trump was trying to make. He continued saying the war's last day, which he seemingly can't pinpoint, is the reason birthright citizenship should be rescinded—adding that the "worst people" use the constitutional clause for the sole purpose of sneaking criminals into the US.
Following the Supreme Court's ruling, Trump's administration will be able to move on with its plan to terminate automatic birthright citizenship in the US as of Friday.
Trump signed an executive order to terminate that right on his first day back in the White House. Following a flurry of litigation, district courts around the country issued injunctions to prevent the order from going into force.
By a vote of 6-3, the Supreme Court gave the Trump administration permission to limit the application of worldwide injunctions issued by judges to the states, organizations, and persons who filed the lawsuit. In response, the US president hailed the decision as a "giant win" in a post on Truth Social.

"In recent months, we've seen a handful of radical left judges effectively try to overrule the rightful powers of the president... to dictate the law for the entire nation... this was a colossal abuse of power," he wrote. "It wasn't meant for people trying to scam the system and come into the country on a vacation. It was meant for the babies of slaves. Hundreds of thousands of people are pouring into our country under birthright citizenship."
