Neither his wall nor ban on Muslim immigration would have done anything to stop the Orlando attack so why should it affect my feelings about Trump? I think he has one major interest, himself, which would do nothing for the country.
Slightly. More so just because I like to see attacks on political correctness than I actually feel trump will be better.
That is why he is already better without even being elected yet. He has done more for free speech than any politician in office. It used to be the right, and particularly the religious right, that wanted the government to control civil liberties for "moral principles". Now its left. They are a secular religion that puts Torquemada to shame. They even engage in sefl flagellation to appease their own guilt. Trump has also exposed the Republican party for their lack of democratic principles. He does share this accomplishment with Sanders in exposing the democrats.

Yeah just the ones in the future since the pattern is apparent. The new immigrants are greatful enough. Their children however seem to regress and lash out. So it will only stop the next generation which I understand that you could not care less about them.

Not just this attack - his proposals won't protect us from attack at all. People who are looking for complete safety from terrorists are deluding themselves. It's a world-wide phenomenon, and we are an obvious target for people who are angry about western political, cultural and economic domination.
We've done things in the world that are reprehensible, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about being what most americans are proud of being - the heaviest-weight on the block.
Money isn't the answer. Strong leadership and strong law enforcement is the answer.
Based on that, you might want to change your answer.
The killer is a Muslim.
The killer is a Democrat.
This happened under a democrat president.

Sorry, that's just dumb.
I'd be willing to bet that a substantial number of the victims and their families are also Democrats.
If american partisan politics come into play *at all* when islamist terrorists decide to make a move, the likelihood is that the terrorist opposes the current president and thinks s/he is teaching the president and the people who elected him some kind of lesson.
