Oh dear, please tell me he isn't really anywhere near the nuclear button and there is a fail safe. If he'd only stop tweeting crap that would be progress.

Re: US Election 2016

And..........?

He may of wanted a Muslim ban and that was what he ran on, but he didn't get one as that would be illegal.


So I don't know what you're trying to say, but It is not a Muslim ban. End of argument.

Where necessary and appropriate, the Secretaries of State and Homeland Security shall recommend legislation to the President that would assist with such prioritization
Right there , it's been all over the news today .It was highlighted by the media when the ban was first announced.Also Trump said so himself

Quote:
President Donald Trump said in a new interview Friday that persecuted Christians will be given priority over other refugees seeking to enter the United States, saying they have been "horribly treated."
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/01/27/po...tian-refugees/

Of course Trump could be lying and making up fake news or more alternate facts

Once again, it's a Muslim ban.

Re: US Election 2016

It will be our business if there are passengers stopped at Heathrow on route to the US. or even Gatwick for that matter.

I have a feeling that this will be sorted out through the courts.As several people are taking the matter through the Federal Courts.

Trump may be President. But he is NOT above the Law. And he may have broken rules of the Constitution.

Doesn't mention any particular religion.

That could just as easily apply to ahmadis or alawites

No it's not, as the link Hugh posted confirms such a ban would be illegal.

So you're again mid-informed, nut then again you're used to that.

Guiliani said Trump wanted a Muslim ban, so they made it happen, but worded it to be legal...

However it is a ban on Muslims in spirit, and that's the main thing for the Donald and his moronic disciples.

Possibly could apply to any other religion..... apart from Muslims because Muslims are the majority religion in the countries in question.Whichever way you try to spin it ,it is definitely a Muslim ban

Re: US Election 2016

Ford, Amazon and Bank of America have now all come out strongly against the ban. I think Apple, Google and Microsoft already have too. Ford is one of the bigger ones since they were one of the few to say something nice about Trump after the election.

I don't know how many times you need to hear this to get it.

They worded it to be legal, and thereby made it " not " a Muslim ban, as a Muslim ban would be illegal.

That means absolutely nothing. A waste of finger tapping.

Weren't you asked to be nicer to Marty? Not sure what "mid-informed" means but calling someone a nut isn't nice, is it?

Let me ask you this then: what religion forms the majority in these banned countries?



Could it be, no it can't be, surely not, impossible, it musn't be or could it be .. Muslims?

I'm just looking at it factually.

1) A ban on muslims would be illegal.
2) muslims are not mentioned in the order.
3) many other Muslim countries are not affected, including Pakistan which. I think is the most populous Muslim country on the globe.

= not a Muslim ban

Let's compromise: it's a ban on citizens from nominated Muslim countries* unless they happen to be Christians living in said Muslim countries.

* excluding Muslim countries where Trump has business interests

If you are going to compromise then let's do it right:- it's a ban on citizens from nominated Muslim countries unless they happen to be Christians living in said Muslim countries who are suffering from religeous persecution. Otherwise it also applies to them.
