The Many Faces of US Politics...

This is turning a bit crazy...

Who could ever have guessed electing a complete moron would mean things turning crazy?! 

Why would a serial bankrupt make a horse's arse of it?

Is it a complete ban from the 7 named Countries or are persecuted minorities except?
How would one prove they were a persecuted minority? Is it just Christians and Jews or are all minorities exempt?
What about Ahmadis and other minority Muslim sects considered heretics and persecuted by Sunni's?

Religious minorities which are not Muslim. Not social minorities such as GLBT.

Whitey considers himself to be socially moderate, now that is scary.

[Rossfan]

I presume Trump and the haters here will be pleased with their fellow terrorists' murders in Quebec?

I was surprised to see Whitey coming out with the nonsense about the lying media

Does it specifically mention Muslims / Islam or just religious minorities which could theoretically include minority muslim groupings?

Avishai Margalit, an Israeli philosopher and co-founder of Peace Now, told me. "Everything is an outlier. No one can predict anything. It's not as if there is a deviation and you try to explain it. Everything is a deviation. You cannot rationalize it. It's a family business, and they treat the White House as a family business, like Don Corleone. He doesn't feel that he has to please anybody. You bully everyone and see what happens.

It's not an issue folks there were no problems over the weekend except an outage on Delta computers!!!

What matters is whether it feels correct to those who wish to exist in an alternative reality and trade in alternative facts.

Not really.....the MSM has been found out!  People have smartened up to the lies and bullshit that they were been spoon fed for years.....much of that same tripe is regurgitated by most of the lefties on here.

That is a pretty good article on why you are pissed off,  Whitey and why people want to buy into Trump's post fact universe but it does not do anything to validate your statement. So come on, give us a few facts to back up how the Press are constantly lying to us to help us undermine your conservative values. I agree with you the  Press are guilty; guilty of ... being duped into giving false equivalency to "alternative facts". Have you read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I refer you to the Tea Party and the conversation between, Alice, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and others.. You might recognize who some of the characters resemble.

Hannah Arendt's "The Origins of Totalitarianism" sums up people like whitey perfectly.

Speaking of morons, how do you feel about your hero Obama banning Cubans from the States, you know the poor bastards that float on rafts in shark infested waters just to plant their feet on dry sand in Florida?

Amazing the lack of noise coming from the left about one of the last executive orders from Obama, if big bad Trump had done that you lot would be dunging the togs to pile on about it.

Am I wrong in suggesting that Trump's EO is banning all entries from those countries whether people have been granted Visas/Green Cards or not.

Hardly comparable with Obama not allowing Cubans to enter the Country illegally!!!

Stew,
not the most humanitarian option, but its exactly the same as the EU's approach to migration from Africa. How are you on that one? Pick and choose your battles. Both sides have massive liabilities

Er... no he didn't "ban" Cubans. They are merely now subject to the SAME immigration laws as everyone else. He ended the automatic qualification for residency which elevated them above other groups. I can see where people would question that decision, but it is not the same thing at all.

Really stew, you need to start reading actual news articles before flying off the handle with rage because you saw some bullshit on Facebook.

Cant see an issue with him banning - after all he did promise this on his manifesto so you reap what you sow as such. But why only chose certain countries? He didnt bother his ass banning the countries he does business in or even the main architects of 9/11 - S Arabia.
