John McCain says President Trump's travel ban will "give ISIS some more propaganda"

Sen. John McCain on Sunday criticized President Donald Trump’s ban on immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries, saying it has been a “confused process” that will only give the terror group ISIS “more propaganda.”

“The good news is that it’s only got to do with a pause,” he told CBS’ “Face the Nation. “The bad news is that obviously this process and these conclusions were not vetted.”

McCain said that it’s important to understand the “ramifications of this kind of action,” which has been roundly criticized by foreign leaders.

“The effect will probably in some areas give ISIS some more propaganda,” he said, adding that he is particularly concerned about the effect the ban will have on Iraqis -- whose troops are fighting side-by-side with American forces in the battle to retake Mosul.

Like clockwork. I said this in another thread the same three or four Rinos who rubberstamped all of Obama’s destructive anti-American crap will be condemning Trump.

Oh I thought that the Muslim’s coming into this country are not tied with terrorism. ISIS hates that we exist, McLAME!

Hey! Don’t forget the funding...

Arming and funding terrorist groups is McCain’s roadmap to peace.

Moslems have been hating the rest of the world for 1400 years. They don’t need another reason. I really wish Kelli Ward would have sent him packing last year.

John McCain more worried about ISIS propaganda than the safety of Americans.

Hey McCain, THE #1 JOB OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS TO PROTECT THE AMERICA PEOPLE!!!

THROW THIS BUM AND ALL THE OTHER SELF-SERVING BUMS OUT!!!

Oh. Right. How could I forget the funding? That’s what Elitists do best. Spend other people’s money.
