Doesn't matter what you believe he is trying to do.

I am going by what he said, that the citizenship clause of the 14th only applies to the spawn of slaves.

If he succeeds in invalidating the 14th's impact on everyone else, then we go back to the 1866 Civil Rights law:

That all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States;

It could be argued that "subject to a foreign power", includes citizens of a foreign power.

The POTUS has a large number of sharp lawyers, eager to please him, so they will find a way to justify what he wants.
