Donald Trump's call for a temporary ban on all Muslim entry in the United States is getting enthusiastic support from a conservative icon, as legendary activist Phyllis Schlafly called for the grassroots to support his plan.
"I think it's an excellent idea, and you know, after the big immigration push in the 1920s, we had something that everybody referred to as a pause, and that was a stoppage of all immigration for a number of years," recalled Schlafly, a WND columnist and author of "Who Killed the American Family?"
In fact, Schlafly said she would support another temporary moratorium on all legal immigration.
"Recall what we did in the '20s: call it a pause," she declared.
Schlafly's support echoes the enthusiastic reception Trump's proposal has found among Republican primary voters. A recent poll found 65 percent of likely Republican primary voters favor Trump's proposal.
Others are not crazy about Trump's details, but say immigration is a problem.
In a National Review editorial, Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, called for "ideological screening" of all who want to enter the country. By that he means the U.S. should deny entry to those who believe in Islamic supremacy, whether or not they have committed violent acts in the past.

I also back a total moratorium on legal immigration for at least 2 years. Then lower immigration to maybe 25,000 per year total.
I like the guy who’s actually out pounding CommieCore....at YUGE rallies, daily.

I was wrong about Dubai. They are mad at Trump. He’ll lose a lot of business in the Middle East. God bless him.

Follow the money :)
As in SuperPAC $$?? Ooops, wrong candidate....Trump’s not owned.
Wealth envy isn’t healthy :)
“Then lower immigration to maybe 25,000 per year total.”
Part of America’s prosperity is from what Canada bemoans, ‘the Brain Drain’. We attract talented people with important skills.
If an employer is willing to pay for the vetting of skilled labor immigrants, including eye dialation testing, I’m all for it.
Yeah, just that one conservative. No others. ;')
