Global Criticism of Trump Ban Builds From Germany to Google

Posted on 01/29/2017 12:58:56 PM PST by traumer

Global opposition to U.S. President Donald Trump intensified on Sunday, as world leaders including Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Angela Merkel denounced his decision to limit entry from seven predominantly Muslim countries in the name of fighting terrorism.

Trudeau, in a tweet, said Canada would welcome those fleeing “persecution, terror and war. Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith.” Merkel expressed her concerns about the temporary ban during a call with Trump on Saturday, her chief spokesman Steffen Seibert said in a statement.

The chancellor “is convinced that the necessary, decisive fight against terrorism doesn’t justify placing people of a particular origin or faith under general suspicion,” Seibert said on Twitter, adding that Merkel had told Trump that international law requires states to “take in war refugees on humanitarian grounds.”

More crap from Bloomberg. All the so-called world-wide attention to Trump’s EO is coming from liberals. Who gives a rip about them?

Well, in addition to the Wall with Mexico...

and the one for when California secedes...

looks like we'll need one for Canada, too.

Why don't we just wall off New England down to Massachusetts, too?

That way, we'll pretty much have mostly red states inside the Wall.

(I make an exception for Minnesota since we went 2-1 in favor of Trump on election day.)

/Do I really need the sarcasm tag?>

Global, yes?

We are sovereign people.

Our destiny is not to be voted upon by others.

The US government exists to serve the US citizens. Trump knows it. The global opinion means nothing.

The LEFT has lost it’s mind when their OWG candidate Hitlery lost. They see the OWG will not take over America just yet. But wait until 2020 when they run Hitlery again - that should do it!!!! /s

No kidding. Talk about having all the right enemies.

The election was all about differentiating between those who reject tyranny and those who perpetrate, enable, and/or benefit from it.

It’s Trump and us against the world.

Merkel, who has turned her country into a Muslim rape zone? They report on her like she has credibility only because she agrees with the media point of view of unlimited immigration. We are at war with the media, friends.
