Trump Calls For Moratorium on Muslim Immigrants

[Thumpalumpacus]

Aside from the tens of thousands of deaths, you mean?

No trouble at all!

Are you saying that the Spanish should have continued to let the muslims & Jews rule them?

lol, are you saying you really don't know how to read?

Go back and reread my comment. This time, don't use the English-to-Wyrd translator; keep it in English and read it as such.

Plan to Bar Foreign Muslims by Donald Trump Might Survive a Lawsuit

“WASHINGTON — When Donald J. Trump called on Monday for “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States,” many legal scholars were aghast and said that such a ban would certainly be struck down by courts as blatantly unconstitutional.

But on Tuesday Mr. Trump clarified his proposal, saying that he would exclude only foreign Muslims, not Muslim American citizens who travel abroad and then seek to come home. That distinction, legal specialists said, made it far less likely the courts would strike it down. …”

I'm surprised that anyone is taking Trump seriously, yet alone actually listening to his arguments. Building a wall along the Mexican border and getting Mexico to pay for it, how's he going to convince Mexic to pay for that then? ...

I personally signed the petition to have Donald Trump from ever entering the UK. It's currently approaching 190,000 signatures. Not necessarily because of his hate speech, after all, no one here is ever going to take him seriously. I signed because he's a fucking idiot.

So, on the one hand, securing our borders is ludicrous, and in the blink of an eye, you then sign a petition to keep someone out of a country? You demonstrate who ridiculously EASY it is to secure a border, when you WANT to. And that's the heart of the matter. All this blather about not being able to secure our borders is just a side show. It's easy when you want to. Some people just don't want to, and make up sh*t arguments on the run, to provide a smokescreen that suits their arational positions i.e. positions that don't come from rationality, but from tribal feelings of solidarity with the brown demographic revolution.

You do understand that before the courts get to strike anything down the Dickwad would have to get it through congress first, right?  Right about now he doesn't have a friend left in the congress.

We do not elect a king.

I imagine so, unless you're Obama, and then you just use your "pen and phone".

How would trump determine who is Muslim? If a terrorist was trying to enter the country as an immigrant and he knew they where not letting Muslims in, wouldn't he just identify as Christian?

How would Trump do this anyway? He's strongly opposed by both parties on this and a president doesn't craft laws like a dictator.

Don't forget, a lot of politicians are weather vanes i.e. they will simply go with the flow. And if Mohammedans keep on killing Americans, the winds will continue to shift towards a ban on Muslim immigrants.

Our future is the same as Israel's, whether we like it or not i.e. a high security environment and a big freaking wall on the border.

There's a reason they say "Islam has bloody borders".

I sincerely hope not. America is lucky to have great neighbors. Canada is full of polite people and hot snow bunny girls. Mexico is full of great food, is cheap, peyote grows straight from the ground and has super friendly people who do the shitty work that we hate doing.

I don't know where your finger is, but it's not on the pulse of the American electorate. Trump leads a pathetic field of Republicans, the winner of which must face a well-oiled Clinton machine or Sanders, who is sharp as a tack.

Those same voters are the ones who elect Congressmen, but that doesn't always follow Presidential coattails, but does depend on Presidential drawing power to the ballot box.

American public attitudes loom very different when you're a part of that public. Your opinion might be appreciated by some, but it is essentially irrelevant, given your obvious ignorance of the American political process.
