Daily Caller ^ | March 28, 2016 | Guy Bentley

A majority of Americans agree with billionaire businessman and Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump that the U.S. should institute a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country.

When polled if there should be "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on," 51 percent of respondents said they agree.

I believe that Donald Trump proposed a complete ban on Muslims entering for any reason, tourism, immigration, education, business, whatever. Though didn't he later offer some exceptions? Like for Muslims who were U.S. citizens and for diplomats?

I didn’t see any information about sample size, or how the study was conducted. These results could be bogus for all I know.

I would like to see a poll on Muslim immigration. The Boston marathon bombers emigrated to the US. They were asylum seekers in the eyes of our government. They weren’t tourists.

Nobody says what really needs to be done which is to ban Islam in civilized countries. What individual Muslims believe (or say they believe) is irrelevant. The Koran is alone among sacred texts that calls for the subjugation of the world by force. It says all non-Muslims are to convert or die. If a Muslim says that isn’t Islam, they are lying or don’t agree with their own doctrine.

I think the Trump focus was regarding incoming Muslims from especially terror rich countries where we no nothing about people's backgrounds.

I do agree there is a Islam problem because they need self reform before we get WW3.

I think many who don't want knowing in their face the truth regarding the violent aspects of Islam are the ones hating Trump's plain language on the matter.

We might not see any more Muslim attacks on American soil until after the election.

It easy to compare Trump versus Obama and his pro Muslim thugs like this bs from the idiot in charge of Homeland Security!

Obama DHS Secretary: Illegal Aliens Are “In Effect” US Citizens

Gatewaypundit ^ | March 25 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 3/29/2016, 9:27:50 AM by Whenifhow

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told an audience today that illegal aliens are “not going away” and are “in effect” US citizens.

And the DC elites wonder why Donald Trump is winning the Republican primary???

The Washington Examiner reported:

The nation’s top immigration officer said that the “11 million” undocumented aliens in the United States are “not going away,” are “in effect” citizens, and added that deporting the few the administration wants out is unpleasant.

Jeh Johnson, secretary of Homeland Security, told Harvard University students this week that the administration is focused on its plan to integrate illegals into America, despite the policy being tied up in court.

Johnson said that he plans to be in the front row of the Supreme Court April 18 when the case is discussed.

But in the meantime, he is making the case that the illegals here, estimated at a much higher 15.7 million by the Center for Immigration Studies, have essentially become American. The proof: They go to school, have licenses to drive, and can even practice law in California.

It’s almost as if this administration is hoping for a complete collapse of the United States.

Here is Secretary Johnson’s full remarks.

Right, but you can’t very well exclude American citizens.

“A majority of Americans agree with billionaire businessman and Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump that the U.S. should institute a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country.”

Meanwhile, the arch-*ssclown obama seeks to increase the number.

What’s wrong with this picture?

This is an EXCELLENT analysis of why Trump is so hated and feared by the oligarchs. Sadly, because the situation we face is so dire and complex, Mr. Hultberg’s essay is probably longer than the ability of many short attention span Americans will tolerate.  For them, I’ve extracted below what struck me as the three “take away” paragraphs. 

Please read the entire piece and share it as widely as possible!  As I’ve commented before, this is almost certainly our  LAST CHANCE to turn the corner back toward something akin to that which the Founders ATTEMPTED to leave us.

“Throughout his adult life Trump has watched as most of the business and political leaders he dealt with have sold their souls to the World Government vision of oligarchs like George Soros. He has observed how our slimy Demopublican politicians and bankers have sold out the interests of the American people via trade deals that sixth-graders would realize are toxic for jobs and prosperity if they were explained at that level of schooling.”
 
“This has horrified Trump, this grotesque sellout of the America he loves, the America that gave him so much freedom, so much opportunity. Being the bodacious man of action that he is, he could not sit by and watch elites like George Soros, David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Lloyd Blankfein, and Robert Rubin push for tax and trade policies that undercut the productive might of America in submission to a globalist, anti-nation-state vision for the world.”

“Their goal has been to make the world into a giant social welfare state akin to Sweden, but first in sections on a regional basis – like Orwell’s three regional governments of Oceania, Eurasia and East Asia. All the important decisions of governance will be mandated from world institutions such as the United Nations, the IMF, the World Bank, the World Trade Organization, etc. And eventually an organized central governing body, complete with military and police drawn from all nations, will evolve into transcendent power. In essence it will be a world-wide form of Mussolini’s economic fascism.”

Isn’t the travel ban actually a sign that they have figured out what’s going on?

Amazing, people are coming around to see the danger of Islamic Extremism even though Obama and the media are dismissing the regular violence.

You said “Travel Ban” which it is not. That sounds like a world wide ban, but instead was a ban of Muslim travel to the US. Your words are inaccurate. Maybe your head should get out of your ass.
