12 hours after his dramatic campaign statement to shut out Muslims arrivals into the US, Donald Trump doubled down and in a series of interviews early on Tuesday, he repeatedly told anchors such as CNN's Chris Cuomo that "we're at war - get it through your head" in his latest heated exchange, during which he reminded America how quickly people have forgotten "World Trade Center #1 and World Trade Center #2."
One thing that Trump did stress throughout the media blitz is that his plan to prevent Muslims from entering the U.S. was "temporary." and in a follow up interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" he clarified that American Muslims living abroad could return to the U.S., following conflicting statements by his campaign yesterday: when asked if Trump's proposal applied to U.S. citizens living abroad, a Trump spokesperson had told The Hill on Monday that Trump's proposal applied to "everyone."

Because Obama's immigration policy is to have a zero tolerance for Christians coming from the Middle East. The Obama immigration policy is to bar any, yes! any Christians from coming into the United States and there are none coming in.
We are told that it is against our values to bar people from coming here but Obama has a gaping hole in his policy. The Christians who are routinely burned alive, hacked to death, raped, whose kids are butchered, who are drowned in cages and who are tortured in gruesome ways have no right to come to America according to Obama.
Obama reserves to right to block any Christians coming from the Middle East, but he is letting up to 250,000 Muslims come in over the next 24 months.
As a matter of fact it gets worse. Obama is currently deporting Christians who came here from the Middle East back to the hell and torture chamber they came from, but the Muslims can come in unobstructed.
So you see the media and the pubs and dems have already lost this argument. You cannot block Christians who are the most persecuted and at the same time welcome the Muslims who do the persecuting.
All the presidential candidates are total wimps when it comes to this double standard. I did not hear anyone screaming about blocking the Christians before Trump took up his no Muslim policy. Obama is doing to Christians what Trump wants to do with Muslims, but somehow Obama sees his position towards Christian as the American way. As long as such a double standard exists Trump will win very,very big. He has completely crushed the candidates who are cowering in their corners afraid of this fight. They will not recover from this.
Trump is right!
That’s what he needs to hammer home. There’s a war going on, idiots. People really need to get that throught their heads.
This is why people like Trump. If this was the GOP Congressional “leadership,” they would have curled up into a little ball and cried the moment Obama and the press called them mean. Then they would go back to their voters and wrung their hands saying “there’s nothing we can do.” Or “if you take a conservative position, we’ll lose the next election.” The GOP establishment still doesn’t understand how much conservative voters — and a lot of other voters in the GOP base — absolutely hate them.
And like Rush said....all the other candidates (R/D) sound the same and have responded the same. We are indeed at war and Trump has reminded us of this. Thank you, sir.
Chris Cuomo argued with Trump when he said Christian Syrians were not allowed to come here as refugees.
Then later on this morning, Rush spoke about The Hill story that the White House has been able to keep Christians out because of a technicality. They are being raped, beheaded and murdered by militants and not by the Syrian government, so they don’t qualify.
Trump has the wind at his back.
Trump owns the field because he instinctively recognizes the dynamics of political issues. He gets better every day. This fact alone should terrify his opponents. Jebbush.com et al... He destroys anyone with mediocre intelligence or skills.
I’m beginning to think he’s in a bit of danger... Hate to think that, but there is a lot of historical precedence here.
As long as there is this double standard between Muslims and Christians Trump has won the argument. As a matter of fact he has won the primaries and the presidencies. All the candidates are running to their safe zones and having a nervous breakdown. None are presidential material.
Or not! Trump will be ok and he will win bigger than any president.
HELL YES WE ARE AT WAR!!!
I agree about Donald Trump being in real physical danger.
soon, the issue will not be who comes or who goes but why is Obama still in office
Obama will become the issue
The problem according to napolitano is that he said ‘muslims’ - constitutionally he can’t say that because is the ‘religious clause’ in the constitution- He CAN however constitutionally say “WE need to ban ALL people fro m the middle east until we figure out what the hell is going on” There is no constitutional ban for calling for people from any nation to be banned- there’s only a ban on trying to ban people for their ‘religious belief’
Well then how do they get away with banning Christians.
There’s another dirty loophole where people trying to seek refugee status must be -officially declared an endangered group- and our anti-Semitic, Anti-American, Anti-Christian president REFUSES to officially declare Syrian Christians an -endangered group-
This administration, Obama & Congress & the Media cannot recognize enemies when they are inside our own borders.....
How can they begin to know who or what is an enemy half a globe away???
John Kerry & Obama have sold this country down the river & destroyed our image. They should face charges of TREASON.
Trump is right.
BTW-—it was Harry Truman who originally deported illegals back south of the border, until Pres Eisenhower continued the practice. About 11 million illegals were deported.
Truman knew that jobs were needed for the returning military men & women, and Eisenhower knew such also. Today, I believe the number is much closer to 55 million & they all need to be deported. We have far fewer taxpayers than we have tax takers.
THIS MUST END.
What i find interesting is that more Muslims step forward to condemn Trump than to condemn the terrorists Syaed or Malik — or even the father who tried to “moderate” his son’s views by saying Israel would not exist in 2 years. Not a peep. It is great to kill or deport all Jews from Israel but it is horrible to stop Muslims from coming to the U.S.A. just until we figure out who is a terrorist and who is not.
As long as this double standard is there, Trump wins hands down. His poll numbers are going above 40% shortly. They won’t win.
How many people will collect a dime of insurance if their house is shot up or blown up...
I predict that they will declare it an act of war—or a riot-—and refuse to pay damages.
Trump is absolutely right to want to ban muslims, BUT he does, -legally- need to simply reword his statement to make it -constitutional-
and again- when Trump says -muslims- most everyone KNOWS trump means middle eastern people- but the word Nazis o n the left will continue demanding he recant what he said and insist he was being literal and meant we should ban people based on religion and not rather because they are from terrorist supporting nations and culture
