Algerians and Tunisians can still travel to the United States. That's very interesting.

Any list to "ban Muslims" would begin with Indonesia.
yep. It is not a Muslim ban.

Also, Khizr Khan should stop acting so irrational all the time.

Rand Paul Reacts To Trump's Muslim Ban: 'I've Called For Something Similar'

He said,

"And so we have examined where the high risk of terrorism comes from and it’s about 34 countries," he continued in the radio interview. "And I would put a pause on all immigration from those 34 countries.”

In my humble opinion, Mr. Trump is just too loud. What he has done is no different from everybody else.
There isn't a lick of difference.

Obama dropped 100,000 bombs on predominantly Muslim countries in the last 8 years.

Not a peep from our SJW friends.

Hillary was SOS during this reign of terror. And she's who they wanted in the WH.

You know which other president put a travel ban on a nation state? Jimmy Carter. Another one of their guys. But he's on the team!

Oh yeah. I'm not a Republican. Didn't vote for Trump. And don't like any of his policies...universally. My job here is to get you to understand that you are a team cheerleader. Sure the statist Right does it too but you guys have gone so far off the deep end over Trump I feel a need to rescue you Lefties from yourselves.

You're welcome.
I understand why you have no problem with the policy, those who choose not to see are Trump's greatest allies.

Those with open eyes see what a farce it is to pass over countries with a history of being terrorist havens and then claim you're so concerned about Muslim terrorists.

The big question is if this chosen blindness is temporary or permanent?

IOW, all the claims that he's somehow different, an outsider, will do things differently are just a steaming load.

Instead of making notes, perhaps you will consult a dictionary for the definition of racism and then think about how you have misunderstood the term and are applying it incorrectly.

Glad to be of help!

This kind of reminds me of that time when ships full of fleeing jewish people from Germany ended up back in germany sent to gas chambers when turned away by America. I think back how racist America was in the 1940's but I guess things never change people just hide their racism more.

Trump didn't ban Muslims like the MSM propaganda being spewed by MSM and reacted upon by the snowflakes.

He's using intel from the Intelligence community put forth by info as far back as the Obama's administration. Those seven countries were determined by the Intelligence community and they just may have info we don't.

Go ahead and argue the Intelligence community all you want.

If the DNC was so concerned with the Trump Administration's actions, they might consider letting them finish getting their cabinet put together, specifically the Attorney General.

However your post is disgusting and fake news. I'm so appalled by losers on the left trying to use propaganda like Hitler used to get other to feel sorry.

I'm so done with the left losing tactics that are beyond the truth!!!

I'm a 2nd generation Holocaust survivor who lost half my family and this weekend I spoke with my mom who parents were gassed when she was 7 years old.

Stop the left propaganda!
Thank you for including your testimony here and condolences.

It must be blissful to think that you have real insight when actually you do not.

Trump is using the same list of nations that Obama used.

SA and Pakistan are not on the list for realpolitik reasons and because, despite these two being a hotbed for Islamic fundamental nuttiness, terrorists are not in fact coming directly from these nations.

Does this hint help?

He can’t go against the established laws of the country and he can’t just snap his fingers and change the constitution. The only thing he can do is to make the immigration process harder than it already is. It is not necessarily a bad thing.

Thing is President Trump has a loud mouth.

He said, "a "total and complete shutdown" of the entry of Muslims to the United States "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on."

It might sound scary,

but Rand Paul said this,

I’m for increasing scrutiny on people who come on student visas from the 25 countries that have significant jihadism. Also, any kind of permanent visas or green cards, we need to be very careful. I don’t think we’re being careful enough with who we let in.

----------------------------------

When asked,

Should Muslim immigrants be banned from entering the country until the government improves its ability to screen out potential terrorists?

Ron Paul’s answer: No, but we should ban immigrants from “high risk” countries

----------------------------------

All three are basically saying the same damn thing.
