British columnist: “If Trump wins, I’m moving to America”

Donald Trump is receiving loads of criticism since proposing a ban on Muslims entering the United States but a columnist from across the pond is more than on board.

“If Donald Trump wins the race to the White House I’m moving to America,” conservative columnist Katie Hopkins tweeted the other day.

In a column for the celebrity-heavy Daily Mail, Hopkins noted that you can’t actually prevent people from a religion from coming to America.

“Even if Trump were elected President, he wouldn’t be able to ban Muslims from his shores – even if he wanted to,” she wrote. Still, she thinks his commentary has merit.

“It took the President a couple of days to even admit the attack was terror and when he did finally address a nervous nation on Sunday night his tone-deaf message was that Muslims were their ‘friends, neighbours and sports heroes,'” she wrote. “In contrast, Trump IS providing leadership. He knows some of his grand-standing is hot air. But he is articulating a sentiment held by millions and reinforcing himself as a protector of the American people.”
The Republic is lost.

Congratulations. You found the ONE thing that rather makes me hope Trump wins.

Katie Hopkins is possibly the vilest person I know of.

I don't know her.  Why have you come to this rather stern opinion of Katie Hopkins?

And the Rev Al promised to move to Africa if TRUMP wins? Now another GREAT reason to vote for TRUMP.  :whistle:

Gee Thanks! Like we need another one of those!

Ah yes... the Perfect Solution Fallacy... unless the activity produces a perfect solution... it is not worth doing...

Watch this fallacy become very popular in the debate over this any many other Trump initiatives...

She's all over the gossip rags here, unfortunately. Every time she opens her mouth, either something truly vile comes out or a foot goes firmly in.

Funny thing is, she's basically a Kardashian (without the looks or sex tape, thank GOD!!). A failed reality TV star, ironically enough on The Apprentice, and that's the sum total of what got her into the public eye. Now she's there, though, by God, she's gonna stay there!

Not true, Ms. Hopkins.
