Post Election Discussion & News

[StormRichards]

Isn't there any other news out there? I'm getting sick of Trump, Trump, Trump. My newspaper had 6 headline articles on the two inside pages. I've never seen so many articles in my life about one person in one edition of paper. ENOUGH already...move on to something else.

Sorry, but the biased media is going to keep publishing anything negative they can come up with. Hopefully all of these people protesting the President are putting in their stock market buy orders before they leave for their march.

So you're saying these protesters are ungrateful because they decided to protest against our commander in chief who is using the constitution as toilet paper vs not making a few bucks from the stock market?

No blind trust=unconstitutional
Ban people who believes one religion vs another=unconstitutional
Withdraw funding from states for "harboring illegals"=unconstitutional
His top adviser saying the media should keep their mouth shut = unconstitutional

Just week 1

He really needs to sit down and read the constitution one day (or maybe get an audio book since reading is not his forte)....Khan will gladly lend him his copy.

How in the world did you come up with the bold statement?

I am told that I can not post anything deemed insulting or a personal attack, but I am forced to read you accusing me of something that could not logically be assumed from my post let alone actually stated.

Perhaps I misunderstood

"Hopefully all of these people protesting the President are putting in their stock market buy orders before they leave for their march"

Since there's a Trump rally going on..this is saying to me that these protesters are ungrateful..life is good (due to Trump's affect on the market) and yet they still complain.

Maybe it means something completely different from reading between the lines.

What a privilage it must be to ignore. As someone with immediate family members who are foreign, this stretch to prevent entire countries from entry even with green cards is terrifying and may mean that we will have to rethink our future plans. I have always worked hard to give my kids a close connection with my home country, but I am not planning our next trip just yet. For the first time in 10 years.

I am with Jo Ann Tieken on this one.

People on social media need to get a life. Doesn't bother me a single bit that the President's daughter posted a photo of herself going to dinner while her father's haters are out there protesting. If she skipped social events every day there was an Anti-Trump protest, she would have to become a hermit.

Now if their social media hating was about her dress, then I can't come to her defense on that one. Looks like silver duct tape.

Even Trump can't be wrong 100% of the time.

Except this isn't refugees or even tourist visas. This is people with residence permits. These are people who have lived in the US for years.

This is the equivalent of if I went on a trip for work and then was not allowed back into the country I live in where my family, pets, house and job are because 15 years ago I lived in the US.

I would buy this if there were a caveat for people that went through the full vetting process that have visas. BUT they stopped EVERYONE. ON PURPOSE.

Nope. Not OK. And YUP -- going to protest loudly.

You do realize that terrorist attacks have occurred by people living in the US for years, right? They don't typically drive straight from the airport to their target.

And PLEASE do not protest on top of a crane. Our nations's firefighters shouldn't be putting their lives further at risk by trying to rescue protesters from dangerous locations. Trust me, you safely standing on a sidewalk holding a sign will still show up on CNN.

Do you feel safer already?

Why don't you count the amount of people from these 7 banned countries who committed any terrorism acts? The number is ZERO.

You're right, there are potential terrorists living among us in the U.S....many are U.S born citizens(like the Orlando club shooter). So guess what..either deal with potentially getting killed by terrorist in the U.S(which is 3x lower than the chance of getting struck by lightning) or kick everyone out.

I know I feel all cozy and safe now with this holy war Trump is starting in my backyard.

I'm not a Christian or a Muslim so I am not interested in this "us vs them" nonsense. Both sides are capable of doing inhumane things.

[StormRichards]

Do you feel safer already?

Yes, I feel safer knowing that we have a President that is taking terrorism seriously.

Really? If he was taking this so seriously, then why hasn't he banned countries in which they actually harbored terrorists (Saudi Arabia : 9/11 and Pakistan : Bin Ladin)? He should ban them all if he wants to take this seriously right?
