You don’t have to be born in the US to be president, you just have to be born with US citizenship, but if one or both of your parents are citizens, you are too from birth.
The only US presidents who weren’t officially born in the US were all born in the 13 English colonies that would eventually make up the US. It is still debated if someone born outside the US to American parents is eligible for the president. Birther scandals go all the way back to Chester Arthur, who was first purported to be born in his father’s homeland of Ireland, and then Lower Canada, where his parents first met. Those accusations never really took root and were disproven, but there has never been a Supreme Court ruling to determine what “natural born” citizen actually means.

Given the current supreme court, I’d wager it depends on the party affiliation of the candidate.
No way, it also depends on tax deductible donations to your local Supreme Court justice
And Trump technically wasn’t “born.” He hatched from a goose egg like all goose-stepping fascist dipshits.
Yea but it was still a natural pipping
