Now we have Steve Bannon of Breitbart calling the shots and moving the nation towards his clearly stated goal to destroy the state. "I want to bring everything crashing down."

Steve Bannon, Trump

Lot of people buy into the propaganda he and his cohorts have been spreading for years. They aren't going to change their minds on a dime.

We have a president who openly violates our Constitution, and a Congressional majority unwilling to hold the roll.

If our courts fold, we're done for.

The bolded has been going on for the last 8 yrs under Obama - but you can't admit that it's OK for some and not others. The country has been going downhill because the gov't became a free for all. Why instill work ethics and job dedication when the gov't will provide. Why care about anyone but yourself when others will provide for them. Why worry about American's jobs when I can buy more or fancier foreign made at less cost. We have lost the Proud to be an American attitude - we no longer are grateful for what we have but find fault and covet what others have - even though the grass always looks greener on the other side.

I'm proud to have supported Trump and will continue to do so as we are getting America back on track.

Owing to the typical confusion of the lib, I was attempting to make the statement clear enough they coulkd understand on the first pass. I see I was unsuccesful. I usually am when trying to have an intelligent discussion with a lib.

So you're not American.

Also: Your posts wouldn't make sense to Einstein. Sorry.

Also: Your view of Obama is ridiculous. And the reality of Donald Trump has awakened the millennials who didn't bother to vote. The Democratic party will come roaring back in the next election, buttercup, so you better get ready.

Finally: You're delusional if you think Donald Trump will last 8 years. He won't even last the first four.

Actually - there are more Dems like me that voted for Trump and are changing our party affiliation because of what Democrats have failed to do for the last 2 decades. Take care of every American - the democratic party has not helped the working man but provided handouts to those who don't. We are the ones sick of being forgotten.

And the millennial comment - the majority of millennials are independents. You haven't awakened them to anything - they decided not to vote because they didn't like either choice - but many are seeing the potential for job growth, not having to stay on mommy and daddy's insurance until they are 26 and the stock market rising as positive signs there is a future for them. They'll be backing Trump in 4 yrs. Also the college kids now - will get a taste of the real life after graduating and seeing how things are different when someone else isn't taking care of you - you grow up fast after graduating and having to assume responsibilities you never had - I'm sure Hillary and Sanders aren't going to look so good.

What makes America GREAT according to you liberals is:

Disrespect for law and order
Allowing floods of illegals and unvetted refugees into our country for future democrat votes
Riots and protests that destroy property
Racism and bigotry against whites, Christians, conservatives, and all who disagree with your ideology
Debt, debt, debt, and more debt
Yearly increases in welfare recipients
Yearly decreases in America's education ratings
The profit and sale of aborted baby parts
Pornography and perversity in music and art
Spitting, throwing eggs, beating up, and burning the hair of people you disagree with
Believing working class Americans are ignorant, less superior to you
Destroying business incentive with ridiculous over-regulation
Etc etc etc etc

Let the dismantling begin!

Well if you really want to go there ..... when you add up ALL the votes cast for ALL the parties Clinton lost by about 4 million, so more voters against her than for her. See how that works? Your queen was no prize as much as the liberals would like to think she was.

Also, what shows how biased and ignorant the liberals are is the fact that they conveniently ignore how King Obama refused to enforce the laws already on the books. Trump hasn't done anything but enforce existing laws, but that doesn't go well with the bleeding heart agenda.

As usual you are misinformed and dishonest. I guess we should not be surprised, based on your usual posting pattern
Obama in 2011 stopped the processing of refugee applications from Iraq. He did not void already granted visas, or stop people who are permanent residents(not visa holding visitors) from entering the country.
The story is not about Trumps xenophobia, everyone already knows about this. It is about trump's total incompetence in causing this needless crisis, and after 8 days it seems pretty clear that we will have many more.

How do you know?

And what would it matter if he did?

The federal judge that made this ruling was appointed by Obama and is a friend of Chuck Schumer. The judge made this stay against section 8 #1152 when in fact the order that was signed by the President was section 8 #1182 so this means nothing.

As soon as Trump heard of the situation he immediately called the TSA at the airport and said these men were free to go at the discretion of the TSA if their papers were indeed valid. Obviously - something was a miss that 1 is still being held. It's not the first time a legal resident has flown overseas professing to be on business or visiting family when in fact - they are attending functions related to terrorism.

And let's not forget personal responsibility - people knew Trump's campaign promises, people knew he won the election, people knew he would take action as soon as he took the pledge - cancel your trips and wait and see what's going to happen.

This is not a permanent ban but a moratorium. These countries were on Obama's Homeland Security watch list as those needing extra vetting due to the problems in those countries. Trump just signed a law giving a time limit to make these vetting processes more secure.

As a refugee fleeing a country due to a fear of persecution fighting or a fear for my family's safety - the last thing I want is to come to a country where those same problems already exist or could follow me. It is in the best interest of this country to increase vetting for everyone's safety - national born citizens, legal immigrants and refugees.

The sad thing really , is how this was executed, had it been planned thoughtfully there
should have been no reason for the orange man to have to call the TSA to explain
Trump is flying by the seat of his pants and could easily have waited a few days to
have all the details in place. The knee jerk approach of his actions are what is
freaky and does tell us that he is not a man who is a deep thinker .
