Trump Is President

[Mr I]

There is a part of me that feels the silent majority are pulling for him.

I'm only talking about fears of islamisation.

Stupid, short-sighted and will do grave damage to fighting real terrorism.

one could make the argument that over the last few years the "open immigration policy" in many parts of Europe has made things much worse.

trump is doing the exact opposite of that. so if the European way was wrong, maybe the trump way is correct. just a thought.

I can assure you that print shops in ISIS controlled areas are cranking out posters that say "American crusaders are dropping bombs and doing drone strikes on Muslims while letting in Christians. Join us!"


Moreover, it takes 2 to 5 years of vetting already to get a refugee visa to enter the US. A terrorist is highly unlikely to sneak in as a refugee from Syria. All you are doing is hurting the most vulnerable victims.

And finally, if he was really worried about terrorists, how come Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Pakistan and UAE aren't on the list? After all, most of the 9/11 hijackers were from either Saudi Arabia or Egypt. I wonder why? Oh yeah, I know.. these just happened to be countries with lots of oil, or where Trump has significant business interests. Wouldn't want to mess those up now, would we?

The whole thing is a racket. And the victims are real and helpless.

Isis was cranking out posters regardless. So that's irrelevant.

Good point on Saudi Arabia though. Someone in the media should have the balls to ask Trump that exact question.

You seem to single out Trump. I would bet 99% of our elected officials don't want to piss off Saudi Arabia. They all love that oil money.

Trump is making the rules now. Who else am I going to single out? If it was Clinton doing it, I would say the exact same thing.

I was super critical of Obama arming the Saudis and how were aiding their genocide in Yemen, and how drone strikes engender serious resentment among the civilians due to collateral damage.

[Bouncer]

scrum did mention Saudi Arabia and favoritism towards them during obama years.

He didn't win the popular vote, so I wouldn't classify that as a majority.
