Immigration Ban

[JohnnyDrama]

It just occurred to me how brilliant this whole thing was. Trump's moratorium was based on a list generated by the Obama administration and is really not any different from what Obama did 6 years ago so again his opponents get all spun up and end up looking like idiots. But here's the really genius part of it: He's let the fervor against the immigration moratorium build up all weekend so that's all the liberals can think about right now ... and he's releasing his SCOTUS pick this week, possibly today.

Either the Left completely ignores the SCOTUS pick because they're spun up already about the immigration protests OR they fracture and neither protest is able to build a significant head of steam. Timing is everything and this looks positively Machiavellian (but for good reasons).

Yep.

The Donald spent almost zero political capital and has everybody on the left's panties in such a wad they not only don't know what do now they wont know what to do next.

And.... Sally Yates gets fired because she won't defend it.

Good riddance. If she had a legitimate legal argument to make, that would have been worth considering. But nope, pure politics.

Don't let the door hit your *ss on the way out, honey.

I will get an earful from my Bernie supporting Professor tomorrow in Social Psychology about how Trump is like Hitler again.

Sure enough, Professor says " as we begin studying the Nazis you will see some incredible parallels to what is currently going on with our government" and that Trump's halting of immigration and refugees from the seven countries was appalling because:

1. The plan still let's Christians in!
2. It was written by Steve Bannon who is a racist and a bigot!
3. It only bans people from seven countries!
4. It bans entry from Iraqis and they are our allies!
5. It was announced on a Friday and initiated very poorly and inefficiently!
6. It was written very poorly!
7. People will be easily distracted by a future Trump "distraction" and he will extend the policy past its current deadline!
8. Giuliani said that Trump asked him how to ban Muslims, so it's a ban on a religion see!
9. It's a huge deal!

What a peice of work. Grit my teeth, smile, get my class credits and move on.

IMO the entire Immigrant issue parallels the homeless one

The D's progressives, Liberals and any other Faux sensitive fuktard who is OUTRAGED over the treatment of both NEVER when asked, want to let either of them stay at their home.
I call the Oh the poor (Insert down trodden) commenters out time & time again. Asking how many they have taken in, fed, clothed, gave free run of their property & home. NEVER has one said Oh yes we've had X here .
Nope, the echo chamber reverberates with RACIST, UNCARING endless stream of useless talking point attacks.

Once again confirming they want you to feel bad about their guilt.

One more incompetent partisan treasonous political hack gone. Good riddance. Her law license should be reviewed as well given her faithless non-execution of office.

There's no way to officially "vet" most of these guys coming from undeveloped nations, who don't have the infrastructure to keep track of their own citizens, not to mention the fact that many are not giving accurate information about themselves. Back in the day a few years ago, I spoke with a friend working in Baghdad protecting the Ambassador there. The Iraqi President at the time, Maliki, had all of his security guys "vetted" ensuring they were safe for the US to train let alone protect him. That lasted about a month after they'd gotten US training and access to the compound when they were mostly all discovered to be members of Al Qaeda.
Goes to say it is nearly impossible to truly be able to investigate the true story or history about these people.

You have my utmost sympathy.

My secret for dealing with professorial noisemakers that had to be endured was to imagine their voices were exactly like the Martians in the movie Mars Attacks! It wasn't all that difficult, as their mannerisms and behavior were already similar.

Hang in there. It sucks that your Social Psychology prof is such a jerk; Social Psych was a pretty interesting class when I took it. Then again, my professor was an older female conservative.
