- Trump's so called Muslim ban, whatever you may think of it or of him, is entirely within his rights as POTUS.
On the immigration ban, the law favors Trump - MarketWatch

- There have been discussions here about illegal immigration and I've heard many people make the claim that it's OK to break the law because it's so hard to immigrate here!
Not only that but according the politically correct it's offensive to EVEN call them illegal aliens because "no human is illegal".

- We have "sanctuary cities" where we actively protect illegal aliens from the law.

- We have the police standing down while rioters assault and destroy property.

Are we a nation of laws any more?

We haven't been a "Nation of Law" since the US Attorney General and most Agencies, including the IRS, US State Department and EPA ..... all decided to "cherry pick" the LAW to suit themselves.

Liberals think that everything they support should be legalized and everything they don't support should be outlawed.

Gee; only took to the third post for the word "liberal" to be used as a pejorative.

I suppose if we were, the birther-in-chief would be impeached momentarily...

Trump Foreign Profits in Violation of Constitution, Suit Claims

Two days after staff at Donald Trump’s Washington hotel dropped balloons and popped champagne corks to salute his inauguration, America’s first billionaire President was put on notice – he is being sued because of profits that the hotel and other businesses earn from foreign governments.

“The founders of our country were so worried about foreign governments paying cash and giving other benefits to an American president, and the distortion that can have on a President's decision making, that they put a prohibition on it in the Constitution,†said Norm Eisen, a former White House ethics counselor to President Obama.

And there is plenty more where that came from. And what do you have against the court system that we have in place? That is prevents the idiot in The White House from becoming a dictator?

The government has been weaponized against the citizens. Recognizing this, some of us voted for the outsider to change Washington. Sessions is getting sworn in as we speak, so get ready for law an order!

It isn't a "Muslim ban." This is the same action Obama took, under cover of the same law. They didn't call it a "Muslim ban" when he did it. This shows how they are politicizing the debate over national security. The Democrats are disgusting!

First, it's NOT the same action that Obama took. Secondly, Obama didn't run around screaming and demanding a MUSLIM BAN like Trump did for the past year and a half.

Thirdly, it is TRUMP who politicized the debate over national security.

NOW - he wants to blame his total failure of a roll out on Obama.

Ain't gonna wash.

Great post OP. I think the nation spoke when Trump was elected POTUS. If he keeps his promises, which so far he certainly seems to be doing with all the weeping going on from those that supported that "other" candidate, we'll move toward a nation of laws again.

I couldn't believe how stupid the college students were that I saw questioned. They believe their 1st Amendment rights include the right to destroy property and block roadways. Hopefully the Trump administration gets our educational system straightened out.

With the illegal aliens, they are all criminals and Obama was just trying to kiss their behinds to win the vote for the Democratic Party. Had he won amnesty for the illegals, Trump would not be our POTUS and the free for all would have continued.

If one thinks about it, anyone that could support Hillary Clinton has no respect for our laws and doesn't care about the security of our nation.

I have no idea why people have become so dumbed down that they don't understand the issues involved with the illegal aliens and the travel ban on countries from which people come that want to destroy anyone that won't embrace Islam and sharia law.
