It doesn't take a law degree to understand that exempting people who are of a minority religion in a Muslim country is the same as banning Muslims. I almost wish he had the courage to just call it what it is.

You forgot to put a "wink-wink" at the end of that sentence. Are any Muslims persecuted by terror groups?

This is actually the most ludicrous spin of this I've seen yet. Stick with "making America safe".

This quote is potentially problematic as far as it 'not being a Muslim ban' goes.

This EO, in my opinion, also gives us a glimpse into just how comically inept this administration is. The fact that they rolled this out without vetting it in such a way that it left green card holders stranded at airports makes no sense to me. I don't understand what would be 'in it' for them. The only conclusion that I can reach is that it was a massive oversight the gave the opposition a significant amount of political capital and accomplished nothing for the Trump administration. A more reasonable EO would not have generated nearly this much fervor, IMHO.

It's called "Government by Impulse" and is going to be as costly to the U.S. as those impulse buys at the store are to each of us.

My first foray into this bizarre thread. Just thought I would leave this tidbit here. https://twitter.com/XavierUniv/statu...70026439847936

Proud of our university.

They're imbeciles I'll agree on that. I just don't see how they differ from the previous presidency all that much though.

He doesn't. But apparently Giuliani does.

So suddenly Republicans are pro Affirmative Action concepts. But only for refugees.
