Worried about Trump, asylum seekers walk cold road to Canada.

WINNIPEG, Manitoba/BUFFALO, New York (Reuters) - Refugees in the United States fearing a worsening climate of xenophobia in the wake of a divisive U.S. presidential campaign are flocking to Canada in growing numbers.

Manitoba's Welcome Place refugee agency helped 91 claimants between Nov. 1 and Jan. 25 - more than the agency normally sees in a year. Most braved the freezing prairie winter to walk into Canada.

"We haven't had something before like this," said Maggie Yeboah, president of the Ghanaian Union of Manitoba, which has helped refugees get medical attention and housing. "We don't know what to do."

A temporary restraining order by a U.S. judge of President Donald Trump's executive order that blocked nationwide the implementation of key parts of the travel ban has provided a reprieve for refugees trying to come to the United States.

I’ll bet they wouldn’t have lost any fingers if they had migrated to Mexico and the climate is closer to their native land anyway...

But we get ignored, insulted, and trashed, by those who have the microphones and the ink; sadly.

It's way past time for US to take back this nation and help President Trump MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN! :-)

the left see their open borders of the world , and their destruction of the west is in danger , and they will fight tooth and nail

Half of the country appears to have gone full boat traitor. They are literally in a state of insurrection against their own country.

They can't be reasoned with, so they've shut the door to every solution except force.

Kurt Schlicter wrote a brilliant, eye popping piece about this very subject. Rush read from it today on his show:

"Leftists don’t merely disagree with you. They don’t merely feel you are misguided. They don’t think you are merely wrong. They hate you. They want you enslaved and obedient, if not dead. Once you get that, everything that is happening now will make sense. And you will understand what you need to be ready to do."

The Left Hates You. Act Accordingly.

States in the upper Midwest did that 20 years ago, and liberal Minnesota didn’t want to follow suit - and a lot of dregs ended up there.

Didn't used to be that way, until all the eastern libs and foreigners invaded the west. We used to be so proud.

The Town hall article isn't long. Three minutes tops, but it will knock your socks off.

Speaking of fake news. How about this from the Boston Globus Histericus:

This is just another bs example of the out of control hate NeverTrump mediots’s fake news.

The Boston Globe hates the Patriots, Brady, and the owners for being pro Trump. So in atypical NeverTrump insanity, they posted this Fake News picture front page!
