I hate to say it but it was big mistake. They should have listened to the DHS lawyers. Now it looks like a big cluster bleep. It really took the wind out of the sails. It just gave the Rats too much ammo. Do it yes, but after Sessions is seated and give notice so NOBODY is already in an inbound airplane.
Yes -- that was an oversight and a mistake. The EO should take effect at a certain time and only control people attempting to get on a plane after the designated time. Of course we are only talking about 200 people. They should have let those 200 people already in transit come in, screen them good and evaluate them one by one and that would have ended it. I think that might be what they are doing now anyway. 200 people. Much ado about nothing but that's how the dems operate.
I agree. This was done clumsily and will be talked about for years. Keep the restrictions, yes, but be more considerate during the next step. Plus, we now have rebel-judges making a name for themselves through opposition. Whoever planned this needs to have their authority reduced for a good while.
Correct. Whoever made the decision to include green card holders and visa holders already in transit blundered big time. Ultimately the blame falls to Trump. This was an unforced error.
Blanks.
I reluctantly have to agree with you. I thought this was a big screw up from the time I heard about it and I hope Trump learns something from it.
Too much
Too fast
Too draconian
Too unreasonable
People in the pipeline have gotten hammered unreasonably. They could have done selective screening on the few that came it. To have something and have it taken away is not right. It is similar to welching out on a contract. It is important that we keep our word and our agreements even when we regret them. It is NOT wrong to change the terms of forward agreements. Not wrong at all.
Agree. Banning green card holders and folks on planes was pure amateur hour. It created a cluster-F and (media frenzy) on US soil involving folks with legal standing in the courts. If they had just stopped issuing new documents, the aggrieved would have only been foreigners scattered in foreign countries. No cluster-F, nothing for the media to sink their teeth into.
Sigh, yep. Not well played. I would like to know if Bannon overode Kelly.I hope not.
This was an unnecessary screw-up.
