Those are likely the same people who voted for Trump and his platform that this issue was front and centre on.
Frankly, I'm astounded that you're astounded - guess you just weren't listening during the election, which speaks volumes about you, rather than the others you're pointing at.
It's possible, but that isn't a likely reason. Saudi Arabia and Egypt are considered US allies. Turkey is also part of NATO. I don't believe either of these conditions applies to the countries on that list.
Still, you cannot - and should never compare the populists of these days with Hitler. I don't take people who do so serious. It's sad, pathetic and shameful. You can't do that.
And by the way, Wilders wants to destroy the EU, because it has become a dictatorship itself. The EU President (Juncker) can basically let the countries do everything he wants. Kinda like the United States, but in the EU's case the 'states' are actually countries. They even want to make one 'super states' out of it, so the EU President would formally become president of all European countries. That does sound like a dictatorship to me! The sooner we break with the EU, the better, believe me. We have to do it, for the sake of our freedom. And don't come up with the Hitler BS, because it's got nothing to do with that. I find it shocking to have to tell you so, considering you're from Europe too. Germany in fact. You should know better.
Do you really seriously think that up until this order was signed, there was no vetting process? - that we just left the door open and "every single person" could walk in? - and now Trump has improved things? They have had extensive vetting already in place. This is not a secret, it's well documented (though Fox News may not cover it). This executive order is just an opportunity for Trump to make low-information voters - who don't have any idea what vetting process is already in place, or that there even is vetting already - feel safe by telling them that he's going to put into place... something that was already there. While at the same time needlessly ripping some people's lives apart. But anything is justified to make idiots feel safe, right?
Quite astonishing. Steve jobs is abroad on business. Trump has just banned him from returning to the USA. You couldn't make it up. Ok, I just have but I'm sure something close to this is happening right now.
The fact that Trump is now President should also be a sign to the liberals who never ever listen to the people. That's what's wrong with politics: they just do whatever they want, and never listen to what people really want. Trump would not have been president if Obama would've done a better job.
I find it disappointing how you people call Trump supporters dumb, stupid, idiotic etc. Says more about YOU than it does about the Trump supporters.
It must be easy to have such a simplistic view of the world. Ironically for the past 8 years we had a president who touted quarter after quarter economic growth and unemployment decline, all the while lying about the fact that unemployment numbers were misleading since so many had stopped looking or had to have 2 jobs and work part time as well as the fact he bragged about economic growth so stagnant it was the the most abysmal up cycle we've ever had. In fact under his watch incomes dropped in spite of his economic growth and improved unemployment statistics as he stifled and over regulated business, choking the economy. Instead he chose to double the debt and spend like never before and poorly at that.
Yes it is true that money begets money. However, the progressive movement wasn't about giving people a hand up so that they could better stand on their own two feet. It was rather about creating a society dependent on entitlements and handouts. And people don't want to work if they don't have to once they find out the government will take care of them for free.
And that is the truly dangerous environment.
fortunately the USA isn't a dictatorship like Nazi Germany was. This shouldn't happen. Checks and balances won't allow it. You gotta have some faith in the system.
Nice try, but not really. Ostensibly, a lot of people were voting for reasons other than the racist and protectionist platform. Examples would include core economic voters, as well as those people who believed that he was largely hot air.
What surprises me is the number of people willing to double down, today, on these absurd policies that the vast majority of intelligent and educated people universally agree make zero sense.
Go Trump, Go Trump, Go Trump
The world will be a better place without these dangerous Muslims
All we ever hear is 1 side of the story what about all the Apple employees who support Trump.

lmao, Jobs was born in USA. He's a US citizen from birth.
trump has balls to do this. its clearly shown that the religion is a bad influence and sharia law is ****ed
I wouldn't be surprised if Trump supporters are banned from Apple.
It's not about liberals. There are lots of intelligent and successful Republican citizens who vehemently oppose this guy. That ought to speak volumes.
More to the point, had Obama been able to run for a third term, your argument would fall apart. And quickly. Based on his approval ratings, he would have overwhelmingly won. People didn't like Clinton, or at least the image that had been painted of her. The public still digs Obama.
And as for your argument about liberals not listening, I'll remind you that in 2009, Obama tried to work with Republicans. They—the ones in Washington—built a platform on obstructionism. I didn't love the guy, but where we ended up isn't his fault.
You're getting dangerously close. Checks and balances don't appear to be working. its beginning to look like rule by decree.
the world is a better place without dangerous people.
There are not enough eye rolls in the world for this absurd nonsense.
time will tell, he's been in office a week, got to give time for the "checks and balances" to do their thing

thats fine if your don't inflict on the rights of offers
are you willing to accept the consequences if you do?
If we ban people based on characteristics like that we need to ban whites(South Carolina) and US military vets(Dallas) etc
Doesn't make much sense does it?
