You may want a dictator running our country but the majority of us don't. I hope congress will start standing up to his temper tantrums.
We had elections... Americans wanted Trump to have the presidency and both houses of congress. This is why we have elections. To settle our differences. Your way of thinking is so out of touch, it's why democrats hold the least number of seats since 1926.

And after the anti-American presentation of the superbowl, Trump will get more support. So make sure you always have a diaper pin nearby, and you'll get through it.

Like he did in the case where Judge Curiel ruled against him?

Huffington Post? They are fake news. They put Trump in the entertainment section because they said his campaign was a joke!!!
You apparently didn't bother to read my post which clearly states why I used HuffPo. There are plenty of other links, but it has an easy to read chart.

Also, this ban is not only affecting refugees. I keep seeing that word over and over on this forum, so apparently many people are not paying a lot of attention. OTOH I remember when Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and the citizens there were called refugees too, so maybe to some it has a different meaning.

You know, I'm not even sure why I am answering your post. It does not even address the one I wrote to which it is responding. Just a lot of ranting.

The left can cry, bash, riot, protest, utter threats and lie all they want but they won't change our mind.
You do realize that 54% of Americans voted for someone else, right?

Trust me, if Americans wanted to import more Syrian refugees. ... Donald Trump would have lost.
That wasn't a major issue in the election. Trump won because he's not Clinton, it had absolutely nothing to do with the refugee issue.

Trump isn't a dictator. There are still three branches of government with equal power and the judicial branch just did exactly what the founders empowered it to do.

Trump won 57 percent of the vote. 306-232 votes. That is why Trump is president.

We'll see. Trump will get around it, probably with an even stricter ban. If we wanted people from these countries here, Hillary would have won.

Kinda like the voters in SD approving, by ballot, an ethics commission overturned by republicans drunk on fraud...


Daugaard signs bill eliminating voter-approved ethics law

So much for right wing ethics and following 'the will of the people'.

Screw hats.

Can't lead? Just screw the voters, lol...

And what does the president mean when he says 'so-called' judge? Anytime a judge rules against him he wages personal attacks them?

Really?

Why would I have a diaper pin? Sorry, don't understand. Hillary won the popular vote by 3 million, unless you are in denial and have alternative facts like Trump and Kelli ann. So no most didn't want Trump. And how is my way of thinking out of touch. You love Trump because you think he always gets his way and I guess you admire that about him. But in a democracy a president is not king and doesn't always get their way. So Trump has to suck it up because it's not all about him. But Trump won't suck it up. He goes on twitter and makes a fool of himself Very presidential
