Could Donald Trump have opened himself up to new attacks?
After months tiptoeing around Trump's culturally insensitive rhetoric and constitutionally questionable plans, the New Yorker's pitch to indefinitely ban all Muslims from entering the U.S. on the grounds that many are radical jihadists or terrorist sympathizers appeared to give Republicans the political cover they needed to unleash on the real estate mogul and reality television star. That's crucial, GOP strategists say, because broad criticism from the right has been the missing link in attempts to dethrone Trump.
"When he starts arguing to shred the Constitution, it gets easy for other conservatives to take him on. You saw that yesterday and today," said Republican consultant Brad Todd, who until recently ran the super PAC supporting Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal's since-aborted presidential bid. "The best thing that can happen is for him to go full fruitcake and get this show over with."(continued)

This is just one of those few issues where the matrix fails and everything becomes visible. It is when the public can see McCain, Bush, Clinton, Obama all taking the same side on a issue. People can see the foriegn money (Islamic oil) buying all our politicians.
Yup, phukem!
The Washington Examiner does not like Trump. Seems like every day they put out some tripe trashing him.
Also heard Larry Kudlow on the show in another segment [he was not among the guests mentioned above], and was pleasantly surprised. He was not at all hostile to Trump's proposal. He said we are in a war. Batchelor and his guest didn't seem to like that.
NOTE => Kudlow all but said he was going to run for the Senate seat from CT.
This is it!
This issue, Donald Trump’s handling of it, and the GOPe’s overreaction is going to lead to the utter and complete destruction of the GOPe led Republican party!!!
I cannot wait!!!
Not being a Trump supporter maybe I missed something he said, but I have no recollection that he “shredded the Constitution.”
Apparently schools no longer teach the Constitution and these nitwits have not idea what the H they are talking about.
None of these rinos have read the constitution or the Koran and probably not even the Bible.
Trump says what he will do and the Dem’s are going to have to say what they won’t do, or at least not do if they had a choice.
I wish people talking about Trump’s proposal as ‘against the Constitution’ would do a little digging.
The actual documents do not give the Federal Government purview over immigration; it gives its it purview over naturalization. How, when, where and by what means are codified in a variety of federal laws, but they are not the Constitution themselves. And, given the right sentiment and effort can be STRUCK down - as well as getting a President in the office who will do what is right instead of trying to change our demographic legacy.
Even with the 14th Amendment, it relates specifically to children born here of alien parents, etc. NOT to those wanting to come here. Unconstitutional, un-American, blah, blah, blah. Hooey.
Another Common Core moron speaks.
What we saw was that most of his detractors, who are all of a sudden worried about the Constitution and religions freedom, have'n a clue about the context of either.
Funny how so many come out and declare it an attack on religious freedom with the context that because they belong to a religion they should be allowed free access no matter the threat...
Here's hoping Ryan isn't in the House "leadership" seat for long...
Perfect summary. It's the uniparty showing it's true colors.

(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any
class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the
interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such
period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or
any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the
entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. Whenever
the Attorney General finds that a commercial airline has failed to
comply with regulations of the Attorney General relating to requirements
of airlines for the detection of fraudulent documents used by
passengers traveling to the United States (including the training of
personnel in such detection), the Attorney General may suspend the entry
of some or all aliens transported to the United States by such airline.
The RINOS are busy destroying themselves. This PC hysterics with out an rgards of facts, law or reason, demonstrates to average voters that they are small silly people utterly unfit to hold any measure of political power at any level, anywhere.
