  1. America first = Trump first
  2. Yeah, with all that's happened and all he plans on doing, I really don't know how anyone can honestly support the man anymore. Any reasonable human being at least. His "supporters" are more like fanatics than anything else. Like Trump said himself "I could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot somebody and I still wouldn't lose any voters." Unfortunately he's right. Besides reversing the TPP, he's done nothing positive for the greater good. All the executive orders have gotten worse by the day. It started with a wall (that we have to pay for now by the way. Mexico will not be paying for it, and that whole "tariff" nonsense doesn't help in the least bit) and now we're to the point where 5 year olds are being handcuffed, detained, and separated from their parents for hours on end. So. God bless America?


  5. The real truth! Their is something else going on than what is being reported.


  6. Definitely agree Saudi Arabia and Egypt should be on there. I heard a former CIA operative saying the banned countries are due to the fact they have no stable, acting government. I think there should be more countries banned to keep the citizens safe but this is definitely not a "Muslim" ban. Bangladesh, Indonesia, and other countries with high amount of Muslims weren't banned as well.
  8. No country should be on there. Banning one citizen from entering a certain country only due to their origin is called discrimination and is strictly condemned by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in several of its articles, particularly in Art.2:

    Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty.


    But as we already know, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights doesn't mean much for some people

    That is about every person having human rights not being able to travel wherever they choose, ILLEGALLY or LEGALLY. What would be the point of having countries if everyone could go wherever they choose, anytime they choose. Some of these immigrants want to do us harm and we have a RIGHT to protect ourselves. Not wait for one of them to kill us and then make a decision. We are trying ro be proactive not reactive.

    There hasn't been a terrorist attack in America from anyone from those banned countries since the 1970s. Before U2 were a band (to put the longevity into perspective). If there were any "real" threats, it would be the countries Trump does business with.... i mean the countries that aren't banned.
  11. If he were to implement a ridiculous ban like this, why exclude the terror hub Saudi Arabia? I mean we know why (his business ties there), but this is why the ban is so ridiculous. It just feeds right into ISIS propaganda which is basically the west being anti Muslim and how the west hates muslims. That's how they recruit and brainwash these people into fighting against us. So if anything, this ban is going to do a lot more bad than good in the grand scheme of things. We just added fuel to the ISIS fire by literally banning Muslims. Separating children from their mothers at the airport, sending people who've worked for decades to get a valid green card to live here right back on the first flight back to the Middle East, etc. It'll be super easy for them to recruit now
  12. One thing I can say about the recent events is I find it very uncomfortable seeing people stranded at airports, people who have spent maybe all they have to come to America, Ive always said regarding Trump let's wait and see what he does but I feel he could have went about this a much better way. It seems like he didn't give people enough notice to change there plans based on these bans and it's left them unfairly out of pocket, I might be wrong however, what was the timescale in terms of notice given to public and the ban coming into effect?
