    Oh... If the poor left only knew this is the type of culture they are allowing with their protests:
    A fairly recent (TEMPORARY) ban at a Starbucks, because a wall fell down, separating families from "single" people. Love me some Muslim religion.

    This seems to be on some power trip type level regardless of your political leanings. This shit is absolute chaos. Reminds me of my last year in the Army. We got a new company commander who wanted to come in and let EVERYBODY know who was in charge. He got rid of mechanics and cooks, anybody he could to try and show that he was The Man.....Ironically 6 months in got busted for a DUI on base by his own troops. I have a feeling this administration will end with some sort of crazy meltdown.....just hope the cameras are rolling.

    He's just fulfilling his major campaign promises, one by one?

    It is true he's letting everyone know who's in charge.

    Draining the swamp means a lot of people are going to be let go.

    This woman deserved to be fired. Hilariously, CNN had a panel on last night to try and get some really smart/"important" people to say Trump did something wrong. Two prominent ones:

    Alan Dershowitz said she deserved to be fired - it's not her job to decide the morality of the E.O., which is mostly constitutional and legal.

    Carl Bernstein said this was in no way like the Nixon Saturday Night Massacre. In that one, Nixon fired the AG who wouldn't fire the special prosecutor who was investigating Nixon. This is no obstruction of justice.

    I told you guys she would get fired. You can't defy a legal order in her position because you think its immoral, or you're an Obama shill.

    Trump's EO is neither illegal or immoral. We have a right to protect our country and people to not have a right to come into the USA, it's a privilege.

    Could you imagine the legal ramifications if coming into the USA was a right for foreign nationals; they could sue for injury for every single American right they were not allowed to have. The entire world could sue the USA. People are being completely ridiculous about this TEMPORARY travel ban and refugee stop.

    FYI I just heard he allowed 870 some odd refugees in.

    Trump's E.O. is immoral.

    Every Person (that means people who travel here) are entitled to almost all the rights of citizens. The few they are not allowed are the vote and maybe enlisting in the military.

    The woman should have resigned in protest. That would have been sympathetic.

    Instead, she looks like a bitter partisan.

    To add to my previous post...

    This is supposed to be a FREE COUNTRY. Not just for citizens, but for anyone in the world.

    Being allowed to come in after approval is different than having a blanket right to come in regardless. It's a privilege to travel here. But once you are here, I assume you have basic American rights during your stay. I don't dispute that.

    Disneyland is supposed to be a magical place, but only for people who have tickets.

    Disneyland is private property.

    I believe the USA is private property. You don't and that's fine. Will never agree.
