I think Trump believes that the "no one" in that amendment refers to citizens of the USA -- I think he thinks the constitution was written to protect citizens from the government
Here is what he thinks about illegal immigrants ======= Immigration reform proposals for 2025 The proposals for immigration reform in 2025 are related to President Donald Trump’s position on immigration and his calls for “mass deportation,” restrictions on asylum access, and border reform.

President Trump’s immigration policy
When it comes to illegal immigration, Trump said in 2018: “Illegal immigration hurts American workers; burdens American taxpayers; and undermines public safety; and places enormous strain on local schools, hospitals, and communities in general, taking precious resources away from the poorest Americans who need them most. Illegal immigration costs our country billions and billions of dollars each year…And I will therefore take every lawful action at my disposal to address this crisis. And that’s what we’re doing.”
During his first term, the Trump administration enacted a series of actions that shifted immigration policy. And when he took office again in January 2025, after campaigning to initiate “the largest domestic deportation operation in American history,” he rolled out several new executive orders on immigration policy, related to:
Border policy (detailing that the administration will “marshal all available resources and authorities” to stop illegal immigration, including establishing a physical wall and deploying “sufficient personnel along the southern border of the United States to ensure complete operational control”)
“Enhanced vetting and screening,” including for visa applicants and foreign nationals seeking admission to the U.S.
Birthright citizenship (stating that this right does not automatically extend to certain persons born in the United States) The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (as the order established an “America First Trade Policy”)
Enforcement policies related to illegal entry (including for those seeking asylum, as this order revoked Biden-era executive orders)
“Realigning” the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, thereby suspending immigration under this program pending formal reporting, and revoking the 2021 executive order on “Rebuilding and Enhancing Programs To Resettle Refugees and Planning for the Impact of Climate Change on Migration”
As of April 2025, at least one of these orders is facing legal challenges, as Democratic states and immigration groups have put forth numerous legal challenges on the order relating to birthright citizenship, and a federal district court has temporarily blocked the order from taking effect.
But, in the meantime, if these executive orders are enforced and implemented, Trump immigration policy will restructure U.S. immigration policy in meaningful ways to focus mainly on enforcement
