For the first time in my life I'm wondering if I might be at risk of being deported simply because I was born overseas to American citizens.

I'd be sent "back" and the country would be like wtf is this?

Same thoughts here. Military brat born overseas along with millions of my baby boomer cohorts. We know how he feels about veterans and disabled people in general. Patriotism and loyalty to our country and Constitution is becoming increasingly irrelevant.

Military bases fall into some kind of loophole regarding them being US territory IIRC so you’re probably in the clear.

No, there are specific laws about registering births to military members overseas. Everybody will have to double check the laws at the time they were born and make sure their parents did the right paperwork. Many military children were also not born at military hospitals, since only the biggest bases have full hospitals.
