You make some very good points with your post. I guess it's no big deal for the current admin to pretend they hate a progressive posing as a republican just as long as it doesn't hurt Bernie sanders chance of winning the WH for comm.... I mean social democracy.

If I ever had a greater reason to ignore Trump it's his latest antics. Ban muslims? Trump is truly not living in 2015.

I think Trump should have gone much much broader and said " no one is going to be let into the country as an immigrant" until the US can get a grasp on what the heck is going on with who is coming and for what purpose, Jobs, Family, or to hurt the US. I sometimes wonder whether Trump, is actually trying to hurt his own Election, due to the fact that he never thought he would become the front runner, and probable didnt want too. But then the White House says something so stupid about disqualifying a candidate, that now the story has switched from what Trump said, right back to the establishment. Idiots, absolute idiots. Republicans and Democrats.

I support not admitting people who we know are linked to terrorism. That requires evidence. Just banning all muslims is assuming everybody is guilty just because they believe in the teachings of Muhammad.
Trump is trumpetting again and it's a loud obnoxious noise.

It's like this. Someone takes every tenth bottle of pain reliever and puts a deadly poison in it. The FDA suspects that tainted pills are getting into the population. Should they look in every bottle for the bad one's or stop the import to prevent death?
What Trump is saying is that until we can better screen those wanting entry into the US, we should halt entry for a time to better serve the public safety and make sure bad guys don't come in with the good. It's unfortunate for those who do no wrong, but necessary. President carter did it in 1979. And Trump wants to use that same authority to do it now. Here is the law that grants him that power as President.
8 U.S. Code § 1182 - Inadmissible aliens:
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

*sigh* The comment is just a point meaning that if Trump thinks that he has the power to do that, he doesn't understand the limitations of the presidency.
Ironic, coming from the current administration, isn't it?

Jimmy Carter banned Iranians from entering the US didn't he?
Sure did.
CARTER BANNED IRANIANS FROM COMING TO US DURING HOSTAGE CRISIS
I wonder why people aren't calling him a NAZI like Trump.
Oh yeah because he's got a D by his name.

Because Iranian is a NATIONALALITY...
Muslim is a RELIGION
And America doesn't discriminate on religion...freedom of religion and all..
Trump opposes the constitution of the United State...He is not qualified for office.
Not a single solitary vote has been cast anywhere in the Nation.
Our Country let's people like David Duke run for President.
Our you so frightened of Trump (who hasn't received a single vote) he should be disqualified ?
What does disqualified even mean ? Show me in history anyone disqualified for thoughts.
Relax, he hasn't won yet...

I think it's common sense to stop travel to Saudi Arabia,Kuwait,UAE,Turkey,Qatar,Yemen,Syria,Afghanistan,Iraq, and Pakistan.
It's the home of Wahabbism.
Geez almighty imagine during world war two there were no travel restrictions on Germany, and Japan/
And yeah people we are at war.
Did ya miss the SB attack ?
The greatest TERRORIST attack on US soil since 9-11.
