Britain will lose out on more than $1 billion in planned investment in Scottish golf resorts if it bans Donald Trump from entering the country, the Republican presidential candidate's company said on Wednesday.
It also warned that the millions of Americans who support Trump would be alienated by such a move.
The Trump Organization issued the caution after a parliamentary committee on Tuesday set a January 18 date for a House of Commons debate on the issue. A petition on the Commons website calling for Trump to be barred has drawn more than 570,700 signatures -- well over the 100,000 threshold requiring a debate on a matter.
The petition, which accused Trump of "hate speech," was triggered by his call last month for Muslims to be temporarily banned from entering the U.S., following the terrorist attack in San Bernardino, Calif. by a couple inspired by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). ...

Cruz's eligibility to be on the primary ballot has already been formally challenged in NH, VT, and FL. More to come.
It has already happened, trumpetta is obfuscating.
Trump is responding in his typical consistant fashion as being personally dissed when attacked. Where he should be attacking those who fail to understand or admit what Islam actually is. He deals with this as if it were a personal insult and responds thoughtlesssly and without depth .
It is interesting the way socialists approach theological concepts for when it comes to Islam they are not the only ones who refuse to approach the issue. That even includes leading Christian clergy including Pope Francis.
Followers of Mohammed not only claim, but truly believe that God has authorized them to kill those who refuse to submit to their version of Gods will.
That is a basic tenet of that religion. A claim which goes unchallanged which makes it a theocratic creed advocating a form of government that is to replace the existing one.
While it is understandable for atheists which most socialists are, not to approach that claim on a theological basis. But believing by bombing and killing those who believe in it will end its practice,which will not. Islam as construed with its portrayal of a mercyless evil deity approving using deception and deceit is an abomination which must be discredited and condemed.
And that can only be done by attacking its assertions and tenets. Certainly not by ignoring and deying they do not exist. .
It is bewildering why many Christian clergy concerned about quote, political correctness, unquote, refuse to address what an insult to God islam is and worse yet are unable to condem then convince and convert its advocates and adhearants they are followers of an evil creed .
The Koran which was not given to Mohammed by God but by some angel .Demanding enforcement of sharia law which draws heavily from the Torah.It is a pseudo religious concoction using monotheistic selected texts, taken and misconstrued from the old (bible) and new testaments.
Both of which cite the Almighty has granted free will to accept or obey his laws and God is the final judge not man: Sodom and Gormora ,and Let he who is without sin cast the stone, are outstanding examples from both books. One deals with sin and Gods decision toward a group the other to an individual, neither is left to man.
Yet followers of Mohammed under the severest of penalties are forbidden to read either which would refute that assertion in a creed which institutionalizes disgusting arab tribal views,mores, observances,and customs. Claiming adhearants are authorized by our Creator to demand submission to it or suffer an ignominious death administered by followers of Islam simply because they answer the call to prayer 5 times a day.

Isn’t this moot? If he becomes president, they can hardly ban him.
“Theresa May is a real piece of work. Sheâs under fire right now over letting an ISIS terrorist flee the country.”
Well, we have hundreds like her in our government today. When I read this stuff, I wonder when, if ever, will my parallel universe converge with reality?
President Trump would bomb the h*ll of of them and take their oil. And make them pay for it.
Trump knows how to use leverage - something none of our politicians are willing to do with other countries. They all go begging hat in hand to our “friends” and “allies” rather than calling in their markers to defend out interests. The Dems and Pubs all seem to want to be “international” and “diplomatic” while selling us all down the river. We need a President who will wield the big stick and then we’ll finally get things back on track.
“âPlannedâ investment. Hey I also have eleventygazillion dollars of planned investment for Britain...its a YUGE amount!!! Donât ban me or else!!!”
The difference here is that Trump actually DOES have a fortune to invest.
You are the only one sounding like a buffoon.
What these idiots don’t realize is that President Trump can and probably will pull our bases from the UK and possibly make a deal with the Irish. If that happens, they will lose a heck of a lot more money than from golf courses and it will be the end of NATO.
Yes, agree, Cameron sure is. If done, the US should also close the British embassy. To hell with them!!
He sure is. This building is just an illusion.

This is a model aircraft one of his boys put together at summer camp.
.
And his family are a bunch of losers.
.
He beats his kids too.
We're on the same page with this. Many fail to understand that actions have consequences. If Trump were elected President and with his 40+ years as an international business tycoon with many billionaire friends and associates like Carl Icahn, Jack Welch, et al, the power Trump has on the international landscape is unrivaled by almost anyone.
Those who call Trump a buffoon should take a look: http://www.trump.com/ and ask themselves who is delusional.
Its not even showmanship, its stupidity.... someone just launched a petition, got enough signatures to force a debate... no ban will be passed, they just have to go through the motions because enough folks signed...
Lets face it this is the same nation that decided to make the song “The BIRD” number one again on a lark.
I remember when you had the same.
BTW, this issue HAS to be debated due to parliamentary law. It will be rejected, we Brits are insane, but not stupid.
No, we don’t.
Hold on, as much as I hate this silly petition, Trump has passed comment on the UK and Europe. HE should butt out of our issues, good or bad.
No, he isn’t, but YOU sure are delusional.
Trump owns a hotel in London, two golf courses in Scotland, and other properties in the UK. He had planned on making more investments there, but ban him and he won't!
And YOU own/run how many businesses world wide; didums ?
