Sunday, Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham issued a joint statement on Trump's executive order, which was signed on Friday.
"We are particularly concerned by reports that this order went into effect with little to no consultation with the Departments of State, Defense, Justice, and Homeland Security," the statement read. "Ultimately, we fear this executive order will become a self-inflicted wound in the fight against terrorism." The full statement has been included at the bottom of this article.
The statement comes after thousands flooded airports across the country to protest after green card holders from the seven countries Trump's order banned were detained and prohibited from entering the United States. Late Saturday, a federal judge in New York ruled those with permanent residency status who were in transit at the time the order was signed would be allowed to enter the country.
In response, Trump said the statement was wrong and called McCain and Graham "sadly weak on immigration."
This is getting totally out of hand. Trump acts like a dictator on crack, lashing out at everything around him. And no, this isnt some grand chess strategy from Trump to distract people from anything, its just egomania. His mental disorder is clearly serious and no one can stop Trump from using nuclear weapons. He is in full control of the nuclear codes. If Trump decides to launch, he can. Only the secretary of defense can disobey the order, but Trump can fire him and the nukes can be launched.
Really....Two decorated military veterans, McCain and Graham want to start WWIII? What is he yammering about now?
The man is an embarrassment.
Ironic since he provoked China to release a statement saying they anticipate war with the United States during Trump's term. The doomsday clock also moved closer to midnight, because of Trump.
Nice to see some republicans show some courage, where's the rest.
