Anatoliy Kuzmin held out his daughters blue U.S. passport over a red Russian one and snapped a photo from a Florida beach.
Woohoo! Got dual citizenship for my daughter! he wrote on Instagram.
American citizenship for the newborn girl was the goal of Kuzmin and his Instagram-celebrity wife, who sought the help of birth-tourism services in Florida for the arrival of their first child. They are among the estimated hundreds of Russian parents who flock to the U.S. annually for warm weather, excellent medical care, and, more importantly, birthright American citizenship.
And many, like Kuzmin and his wife, stay at President Donald Trumps properties in Florida.
While Trump rails against U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants, his Florida properties have become a playground for birth tourists from Russias upper crust. The Daily Beast has discovered several companies are advertising rentals in Trump properties to expectant Russian parents. While the Trump Organization does not directly profit from subleases of privately owned condos, it does benefit from Russian patronage of the nearby Trump International Beach Resort. (The Trump Organization did not return requests comment.)

(14,971 posts)Daily Stormer Andrew Anglin loves it and is calling Trump The Master Race President.
White nationalists also expressed excitement Tuesday about Trump's plan to use an executive order to end "birthright citizenship," the automatic grant of citizen status to anyone born in the United States.
"Master race president remains the master of races," Andrew Anglin wrote at the Daily Stormer, a white supremacist website.

(2,574 posts)He's not going to lose money and Russian friends. Instead he'll probably selectively write his racist edict only applying to certain countries,i.e. ethnicities.
Also his wife's parents just got citizenship or permanent status bkz of Melania's citizenship status. Isn't that an example of their RW
dreaded "chain migration"?
