Some random dude from Ohio isn't a barometer for the country. CARL!

Well said Knapp

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2017/01/30/president-trump-refugee-executive-order-barack-obama/97249540/ "In 2011, the State Department significantly slowed the number of visas it issued to Iraqis in order to review its vetting process. The concern stemmed from the arrests of two Iraqi refugees on terrorism charges in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in 2011. One of the men was linked through fingerprints to an improvised explosive attack in Bayji, Iraq"

I believe current vetting practices began in 2011. There was a threat in Kentucky from two refugees that was mitigated, which was a catalyst for the Obama administration to strengthen vetting processes.

The case made here is not too far fetched, especially when one takes into account how many Federal vacancies and dismissals have occurred. And this, coupled with the theory that Trump is using this action as a way to find out who is loyal to the United States or the Trump Administration (with the explicit purpose of replacing the former with more of the latter) does not bode well for our country. Also, going back to the 'golden showers' dossier... Yeah...interesting indeed. It's amazing how the pro-Trump folks seem to have scurried away from the light of this and other threads as of late. :-| What's the point in even commenting at this point? There's no way folks are really going to listen to anything. Everyone is so worked up it's just not worth it to me. I'd love to listen to someone explain their support for an administration that thinks putting 5 year olds in handcuffs at the airport is a good idea. See..........it's assumed I'm okay with that, even though I never said that at any point, just because I voted for Trump. #assumptions He campaigned on doing this. You must've been okay with it enough to vote for him.

If that's true, that's disgusting. There's no reason to put those people in handcuffs. Let alone a child that is easily under 6 years old.

Where's all of this fiscal responsibility I've heard oh so much about?

OMG..... The Best People

Deplorables.And the women were yelling back. Stupid situation all around. Yes, how dare women yell back at a group of men making light of sexual assault and rape. Thank you for agreeing with me. I don't.

Intriguing question, I'll attempt at fielding it. Are drone strikes part of the Democratic Party's agenda as a whole that the entire party is working to support or are drone strikes something that each occupant of the Oval Office for the foreseeable future is going to have to handle, regardless of party affiliation? Is it contradiction or is it an unfortunate by product that the office has right now? I think all of us can discern that there are things our favorite Presidents have done that we don't agree with. if you think critically It's an interesting question, however I think you could ask yourself "Is this something that comes with the territory? Or is it part of the platform and agenda of a political party?"

...didn't you vote for this? This comment right here is the perfect example of what is wrong with this part of the board. Knapp, take note as we discussed this before. Yes, I voted for Trump, I did not vote for republican control of every facet of our government. To assume I'm okay with this is an unfair assumption and pretty juvenile to say the least. Personally, I prefer to not have our government or our courts to lean conversative or liberal and this is a perfect example of that. DO NOT start trying to point the finger at me for this. I think that voting for Trump actually is a vote for control. He and the GOP are known entities. You voted for him and on day 5 you're already lamenting the agenda he and the GOP are pursuing? What did you think was going to happen?

It's funny. For years I heard about how much Obama hates America. It seems the GOP are the ones that truly despise everything about the America and are actively working to destroy lives.

...didn't you vote for this?

All future elections are called off.

Deplorables. And the women were yelling back. Stupid situation all around. Yes, how dare women yell back at a group of men making light of sexual assault and rape.

Will he be helping clean up oil spilled from the Keystone Pipeline too?

Agreed. I was always partial to the name "DiCaprio Bootle"

Yup. The GOP has cultivated anti government, anti science, anti intellect, anti critical thinking sentiment for decades now. This is what we get. The best predictor of future behavior, is past behavior. Anyone who thought that Trump would suddenly change his demeanor, temperament or decision making was merely lying to themselves. People voted for this administration by burying their heads in the sand and using a single issue like a Police Union endorsement, or because he said he's Pro Life to justify this atrocity. This is downright despicable.

Yeah, my goodness. Those of you who support these happenings or don't consider them a big deal, what's the reasoning? I am quite curious. I am wondering the same damn thing.

Well this is horrifying.

This is incredibly alarming.

Not taking any personal responsibility or ownership for his actions. He is a shameful excuse of a man.

FU Mr. Trump. Funny things I've found out: Rick Perry was on the board of directors for the parent company of the Dakota Access pipeline until he resigned a few weeks ago. The CEO of that company gave over $100,000 to Trump's campaign. He also gave $6M to Perry's 2016 campaign. The other parent company with controlling stake is the top crude oil spiller in the US since 2010. That all seems legit, right? What could go wrong? I was thinking the other day how my tap water didn't have enough crude oil in it. Can any of you conservatives shed some light on this for me as to why risking the pollution of the biggest aquifer in North America is a good thing?
