Make your mind up FFS!

Oh no I want it to be debated in parliament

But Theresa may will have to ignore the will of the people 😉 and let trump in because it will illustrate that Brexit has made us desperate to suck up to any sleazeball that offers us a trade deal #fakecontrol

KImbers - I doubt that as the US is so ****ed up on healthcare that people without any healthcare and who would benefit from ACA detest it.

I know from a friend over there that a lot of people are upset and going to be in a difficult situation, in this case students, not that students rebel like they used to though

"What would you judge as a non trivial thing then?"

Invading Iraq and causing a massive Civil war through the Middle East and creating ISIS.

Pissing a few hundred people around is chicken feed compared to that.

Drone strikes and assassinations without trial.

I agree with the people saying he's just doing stuff publicly for the headlines in the full knowledge it can't happen and in every case he can point blame elsewhere when it doesn't happen.

Not very commendable but hopefully it's not Armageddon.

There are a few interviews around with people who were on ACA looking very upset when they found out that was the Obamacare they just voted to get rid of.
I've spent the last week telling people to chill out with the noise. I'm hardly about to start adding to it! Like I say I could speculate, but I won't.

Honestly he needs the scrutiny, every decision needs looking at and the second he slips up hammer him for it.
It's very strange how quiet he has gone since his first set back, no tweet, no retort to the celebs mocking him, no witty slanging match.
He is going to have a tough job getting the stuff forward he shouted about let alone anything else.
The only upside of Trump and Brexit is the number of people who have felt safe to come out of their shells and show their true colours, and those who seem to blind to see (or are just trolling)

President Trump is doing the right thing as he got the guts to deal with issues others shy away.

In the meantime he should hammer those opposing his every decisions as hard as possible to the hilt, then see who scream first since President Trump is already getting hammered for no reason from the day he campaigned for Presidency. Hammer time!

I've got no problem with that what so ever, I've gave a couple of examples earlier or noise and stuff to get worked up about so far. My main point is pick the battles, it's far too easy right now to dismiss the "left" as hysterical. Some thing I quite dislike doing as I place myself somewhere to the left of Ghandi ffs! 😆

Let's not forget that it's only a few pages back in this thread where certain people were looking forwards, predicting how upset and betrayed all his supporters would feel when Trump inevetably didn't do what he said he was going to do, that it was all bullshit.

Link may need an update but then as the white house isn't commenting on his shut down immigration policy we are not sure

Trump's Muslim ban is happening, that's why it's making the headlines, I don't know why you think it isn't.

Well, apart from the fact that it only applies to about 13% of Muslims... so you could take the attitude that he had successfully moderated it and targeted it at problem countries, which seems fairly reasonable

Washington Post is another of those news that was opposing President Trump from day one of his campaign just like CNN.

In fact all the media broadcasters were trying to be the "king maker" predicted massive lost in Trump Presidential campaign. They cannot handle the fact that have been absolutely wrong so now trying to create troubles to ensure their "prediction" come through.

Biased and dangerous bunch of reporters that try to incite and stir emotion against one another. Not news worthy.

I know better than to argue with you ninfan, so if you want to put a spin on the fact that at the stroke of a pen Trump has banned 134 million people from entering the United States then go ahead.

Yeah, he's caused outrage across the world for nothing.

"Trump's Muslim ban is happening, that's why it's making the headlines, I don't know why you think it isn't."

Because according to this thread the judiciary have stopped it and it's illegal. I admit I havent fact checked that but it seems to be generally agreed.

Not that I care. The USA have committed insane atrocities in their over reaction to 911, I really can't get excited about this issue.

No they haven't. As above, they have stopped deportation of those caught in transit. The ban is still in place.

If it was a piece of political theatre designed to get the Liberals in a tissy, I'd say the immigration ban been remarkably successful so far.

You only have to look at the choice of the countries involved and what they mean to Trump supporters to guess at why they were chosen (and more importantly why other countries who's citizens have perpetuated more terrorist acts weren't) I'd imagine to Mrs and Mrs Trump Voter of Spigot, Idaho, Somalia is where we had a war and kicked ass (Black Hawk Down tells them this is so) They've been at war with EyeRacK so banning them makes perfect sense, EyeRan are their implacable foes if they watch any news at all, they'll know the name, so that makes sense, and if they've even heard of the other countries: "Who they hell cares anyway, we shouldn't jus' let anyone into our goddam country anyway" and there's practically nothing those countries can do about it.

That some Judge in Manhattan has stopped it temporarily even plays to Trump's narrative of the Liberal Elite trying to thwart his "sensible plans". The Liberals can complain all they like, Farah and MPs even makes it a better story, as it looks "even handed".

patiently awaiting the reasonable presidential orders banning, lightning, toddlers, beds, lawnmovers, buses and and americans from america!

Since we're being extra carefully, logically we should probably make that all weather events, all children, any type of bedroom furniture, all transport and well, may as well just ban every nation. Can never be too vigilant! 😆

We need time to figure out what the hell is actually going on!

Excluding all data from 911.

Not that I dispute the point - the USA has insanely over reacted to 911.

Yeah, but only 13% of them, and the sort of weather, children etc. which the Trump doesn't have business dealings with - you wouldn't want to be immoderate or unreasonable

9/11 was simply the excuse that the neo-cons had been waiting for, it wasn't an overreaction as such.

See Northwind's post above for a comment in a similar vain.

true, don't want to appear draconian in our approach, thanks for keeping me in check! 13% seems a reasonable arbitrary number to go with! No-one could possibly argue against that, very sensible.

You only have to look at the choice of the countries involved and what they mean to Trump supporters to guess at why they were chosen

Or they could have been chosen as the Seven 'countries of concern' already identified for additional visa controls under the anti terrorist measures taken by the Obama government

https://www.dhs.gov/news/2016/02/18/dhs-announces-further-travel-restrictions-visa-waiver-program

So, given that fact, perhaps you would like to expand on your theory?

I think your sarcasm might have been to subtle tbh so just for the hard of thinking, no. 15 were saudis, 2 were from the UAE, 1 was from egypt, 1 was from lebanon, absolutely none would have been affected. I know you know this but part of the scam here is that many people will assume otherwise.

I was curious how many terrorist killings would have been prevented. Hands up anyone who's surprised to hear it's zero. Nobody?

The statistics are clear. The idea that anyone on American soil is in any significant danger from Muslim immigrant terrorists is laughable.

But those who support Trump don't care about statistics. They care about how they feel. And they "feel" under threat from alien forces, despite all the evidence to the contrary.

Then, as pointed out, why were the seven countries concerned identified as 'countries of concern' under anti-terrorist legislation issued by the [b]Obama[/b] government?

(Edit, sorry, six of the seven, the executive order adds Syria to the other six)

It is true that people are banned from those countries that is to be banned. True.

Not true when people are commenting from BBC studios. Not true.

Regarding EU true. Leave that to the EU thread.

It is perfectly logical. They are banned for 3 months. Banned for 3 months.

Which part of the logic of 'banned for 3 months' do they not comprehend?

It is what USA is doing get over it.

Who? That Mo bloke? Has he applied to go to Merica for training yet or is he just commenting?

I thought he has retired so no more Merican training?

Apply to go to Merican first then talk.

As for the ban that's exactly what President Trump said. It's 3 months ban ... true.

He is based in the US. His family live there. Not being there at the moment means he can't go.
