Donald Trump is expanding his Muslim ban, not rolling it back
WAPO ^ | July 24, 2016 | Jenna Johnson

Donald Trump made clear this weekend that he has not rolled back his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States, despite top allies insisting that he had.

In accepting the Republican nomination on Thursday night, Trump said the country "must immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism until such time it's proven that vetting mechanisms have been put in place." Trump made no mention of Muslims in the speech, leading many to conclude that Trump had formally changed his position — just as a number of his top allies, including his running mate, said he had.

During an interview this weekend with NBC's "Meet the Press," host Chuck Todd asked Trump whether his comment should be interpreted as a "slight rollback."

It’s not practical to ban by religion. We should, but it will not be easy to do. Instead, ban all permanent residency from certain majority muzzard countries. Travel and study by visa only.

“This is our country, not theirs”.

You are so right. It is OUR country without any apologies. We have been so brainwashed and dumbed down by popular slogans that we hear all the time such as: “This is a nation of immigrants.”, “Diversity is our strength”. This is so much BS but we hear these empty slogans so many times that it dulls our minds. Note to self: be careful before I repeat any inane slogan presented by the mass media.

We MUST repatriate, return the millions of Muslims Obama (and to some degree also Bush) have brought in here. Islam is the only group that is taught from birth to hate Christians and want to infiltrate/invade, terrorize/bomb/mass-murder us “infidels”

we should not have allowed more people into USA during Obam’s Great Depression anyway. We have 100 million Americans without work already. But if we are to bring any more people in, let it be almost any group except Moslems!!!! Islam is DANGEROUS!! They’ve already taken over and, in several cases, mass=murderd the peoples of 57 countries....and they’re well along to do the same to much of Europe, UK, and USA already

Remember how, for all of our lives, the Republican would ‘move to the middle’ in order ‘to win the election’?

And remember how we all accepted it, even though inside we despaired of them ever moving back our way?

In the words of Donald Trump “That ends RIGHT NOW!”

Trump should also require all nations put the religion of passport holders on passports.

But... but.... Jeb! told us that Trump doesn’t mean any of this.

Trump won’t build the Wall. And Trump won’t keep Muslims out of America.

In other words, he will govern exactly like Jeb! would, at least according to Jeb!.... which makes you wonder why Jeb! objects to The Donald if he believes this...

It’s not quite “Muzzies may not be present in the United States,” but it’s a dern good start.

He ought to expand it to where he deports alll Muslims who were not properly vetted by Obama.

Newt Gingrich talked about deporting all Muslims shortly after the Nice massacre. If Newt is a major player in the Trump administration then he may continue to push it.

Would Trump make changes to U.S. passports because a foreign government demanded it?

Hillary is nuts.....
Trump is right.
Read this....Breaking: Do we want this here?

BERLIN (Reuters) - A 21-year-old Syrian refugee was arrested on Sunday after killing a pregnant woman with a machete in Germany, the fourth violent assault on civilians in western Europe in 10 days, though police said it did not appear linked to terrorism.

The incident, however, may add to public unease surrounding Chancellor Angela Merkel’s open-door refugee policy that has seen over a million migrants enter Germany over the past year, many fleeing war in Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq.

German police said they arrested the machete-wielding Syrian asylum-seeker after he killed a woman and injured two other people in the southwestern city of Reutlingen near Stuttgart.

The Syrian had been involved in previous incidents causing injuries to others, and had apparently acted alone, a police spokesman said.

As unfortunate as all these deaths by muslim are happening both here and around the world, Americans want to be safe.

Next week the rats will double down on bringing in more "refugees."

Trump, on the other hand, is telling the American people that he will look out for them and their safety.

Islam is the only group that is taught from birth to hate Christians

And Jews and Hindus and Buddhists and everyone else on the planet who is not a Muslim.

Start by checking mosques to see if they are arms and munitions storehouses and whether the imam has been recruiting ISIS soldiers or held terrorism training courses in them, none of which pertains to freedom of religion at all but conversely is a false church set up for the purpose of planning the takeover of a country and committing terrorist acts. If yes, bulldoze it and deport them.
