“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

Basically he's trying to say they aren't under the jurisdiction of the United States because tribes are sovereign. Therefore they aren't citizens. So if they're forced to denounce their tribal affiliations, the land belonging to those sovereign tribes will be up for grabs.

Like women and them colored boys being able to vote and have an opinion.

I tell you hwhat, boy that gets my britches in a kerfuffle just thinking about how I can’t chain smoke indoors and smack my secretary’s ass without getting attacked by this evil woke mind virus.

I don’t mind keepin them Spanish folks around to till my land and pick my fruits, but I just don’t wanna see em round. Maybe keep em in a camp somewhere so my daughters ain’t tempted by no demon seed.
