Mayor Bans Trump

[aligncare]

Trump was scheduled to travel to Jordon next month, but it has been canceled. Probably for the same reason. It would have been a huge embarrassment and diplomatic blunder before he even steps into the white house  to learn that Jordon banned his travel into their country - a NATO country - all because of his position.

I'm glad you brought that up. You do realize Trump has hundreds of millions of dollars in assets and business interests in Islamic countries?

How about instead of criticizing him we give him kudos for wanting to protect America against islamic terrorism, even though in doing so he stands to lose money in those countries because of his political stand?

I'd say Trump is a profile in strength and courage.

Seems this mayor has a problem with the First Amendment.  If I were a resident, I would have a problem with the mayor.

From the thread on the subject... What Trump actually said.....
"Trump called for a "total and complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the United States until elected leaders can "figure out what is going on."

How is that a BAN?

Through the magic of language and the meaning of words.

Yeah that is some magic to take this

"Trump called for a "total and complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the United States until elected leaders can "figure out what is going on."

And turn it into this

"Trump wants to ban Muslims"

But, but, people want meaningful dialogue (whatever that means). They want someone with a Harvard accent and stylish eyeglasses to tell them everything is okay...they want sharply creased pants...they want blue ribbon commissions and two-year studies to tell us what the plain language of the constitution means...they want federal agencies to tell us what to think, about food, about breast feeding, and about which children's toys are gender-neutral...they want the masterminds in media and government to tell us how to live the life God gave us.

In other words, they want and support a ruling class of social engineers in charge of our souls.

Good rant.
