Any federal civil service employee would be fired for that. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity guidelines specifically cite that wording as an ETHNIC EPITHET.

Trump’s grandfather was not born in the U.S. (Germany)
Trump’s mother was not born in the U.S. (Scotland)
Trump’s first wife was not born in the U.S. (Czechoslovakia)
Trump’s current wife was not born in the U.S. (Slovenia)
