I'm in favor of keeping all idiots out, regardless of their religion. Our nation is full beyond capacity as it is. We don't need a bunch of neanderthals stumbling around gumming up the works. The only legitimate reasons for our government to allow immigration into our country would be that we wanted it, and that our lives were improved by it. Neither has been a popular notion for several decades. 89% of Americans want better border security. Our government is not a world government. It is not a mid-eastern government. Only Real Americans fund it and only Real Americans deserve it's many benefits.
Before LBJ, the US contained us all through reverse psychology. Free people never think of leaving. Once JFK was eliminated, most intelligent people realized Ike's warning had become reality, but most people aren't intelligent. The erosion of freedoms and basic rights has been constant and thoroughly effective. In public schools younger people aren't taught US History, the rights they used to have, the freedoms they used to enjoy, so they think they are free as can be. Immigrants have no clue what the word free means, so they gleefully accept small improvements in their previously wretched lives and call it freedom. All of this weakens the basic foundation our country was built on.
We are so screwed... not only is he not anti-establishment, he's skipping the middle man and just going straight to the lobbyists. Fucking awesome.
Ah yes. Because a British News Agency is a prime source of unbiased and fair reporting of US politics. Especially when it comes to Trump....they love the guy. And so does NBC, CNN, VOX, TYT, and ABC. Jesus, the guy has barely even begun to put an Administration together. Let's calm down a little and wait and see.
The people he is picking is not encouraging. I could see a scenario where nobody is happy with him because he doesn't fulfill any of his promises.
That's the thing. Washington is INFESTED with career politicians and corruption, so whom exactly is he supposed to pick? It's likely that ANYONE he picks is going to have a hand in the elitist cookie jar.
If it was me, I would throw it open to regular people. Intelligent people who want to help the country. We don't need lobbyists or bank execs or career politicians. Those are the people who got us into this mess.
Yes, that's a nice theory that I could get behind. However, in practice, it just doesn't work that way. Otherwise, it would have been done before now. The only reason Trump even got to where he is is because of a $10 Billion fortune. You HAVE to have money to make it in Washington. Period. That's just the way it is. I don't like that any more than anyone else does. But there's a reason why the unwashed masses cannot just walk into the Capital and get hired. That being said....since he has ties outside of Washington, it's those people whom I would be trying to push for key positions. Except for Trey Gowdy. I REALLY want that guy to be AG. And Guliani to be COS.
Meh, I'm just a nerd as @HCP always said. I think I've already met you. Didn't you used to have a Gandalf avi?
