Are you American?

Why isn't there a straightforward answer? Why is it so convoluted?

If you know about the political situation in America you would know why it is ironic that someone would invoke ancestry-based citizenship rights to leave America out of protest of the current president.

It's not ironic. It's just the only way out if things get really bad.

It makes perfect sense to me.

You haven't explained anything, you just keep repeating a vague premise and saying if someone doesn't agree they 'must not understand'.
