(Try to leave political bias aside on this one) If you had the choice, would you disqualify Donald Trump from being president based on his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the country?
Can you imagine how much liberals would love Trump if he were yelling about gun control or women's rights. They would be falling all over themselves trying to kiss his feet. But since he has a different point of view then he must be Satan himself and be disqualified.
The constitution doesn't say you can be president as long as you don't say stupid things. As long as he meets the criteria of a person running for President, he can run. You can't disqualify someone from running or people from voting for him just because he says things you disagree with.
Haven't seen the complete quote but have been told that Trump didn't express a permanent immigration ban.
He was expressing that their needs to be workable vetting procedure in place 1st.
If this is correct then shame on the media for misquoting Mr Trump.
Many presidents have done the same thing. Carter banned all immigration from Iran during the hostage crisis. The media is blowing this up over nothing. It's not a permanent ban.
Putting a hold on letting in Muslims from unstable hostile countries , until they can be properly vetted sounds like common sense to me. It is not unconstitutional to put a hold on immigration.
I don't see how a person can take an oath to support and defend our constitution which clearly allows for religious freedom, and at the same time refuse people of one religion admittance to our country.
I see your side and respect your right to have your own opinion, however I believe that it violates the constitution which is one of the documents that keeps our government in line. (Feel free to rebut, I love political discussions)
I personally haven't read any of it so personally I will refrain from commenting on its contents, but one of the intentions of the country was religious freedom and what Trump said contradicts that in my opinion. Also CNN stated that the proposal put us on high risk with possible Muslim terrorists so something needs to happen before Trump makes our terrorism problem worse.
The abrahamic religions in general have nasty things in their books, but Islam still has followers that have a 3%-30% population that follows the runs (growing daily).. so it's somewhere between 30 million and 300 million.. which is around the popula
Yeah it is really all a matter of personal views... And environment Trump probably associates with people who have similar views as him so I can see how he thinks it is the right thing to do.
