Trump's Muslim Ban is Working. Muslim Immigration Slumps
Newsweek ^

Posted on 12/14/2017 11:31:11 AM PST by Cubs Fan

During his campaign, President Trump promised to ban all Muslims outright until he could figure out “what is going on.”

He later explained that this idea had developed into several policies that would have the same effect.

Keep Up With This Story And More By Subscribing Now

Since his inauguration, Trump has begun to implement them—they include slashing the refugee program, banning all immigration and travelers from several majority Muslim countries, and imposing new burdens on all visa applicants as part of “extreme vetting” initiatives.

So far, these policies appear to have “worked,” strongly reducing Muslim immigration and travel to the United States.

Muslim refugee admissions have fallen dramatically over the past year. According to figures from the State Department, Muslim refugee flows fell 94 percent from January to November 2017 (the last full month of available data).

In calendar 2016, the United States admitted almost 45,000 Muslim refugees, compared to a little more than 11,000 in 2017—fully half of those entered in January and February.

Of course, the administration has cut refugee flows generally, but the Muslim share of all refugees has dropped substantially too—from 50 percent in January to less than 10 percent in November.

OMG such WINNING! Things are not so bad the day after a huge loss for the country. There are things the POTUS can do for the good of the country without the need for Congress.

Still amounts to a stay of execution for America. If Democrats dominate future elections we all know the caliphate will continue to grow.

This is good. NOW let’s see some numbers of them heading the other way until not a damned one of them remains in this country to push their dementia upon us.

Every number closer to ZERO is better than every higher number. We shouldn’t take ANY follower of a perverted mass murderer.

More likely "half-good" news...When do the deportations of the refugees already here start?

Then, and only then, there is "good" news

This is a tautology.

They can't get in legally and they can't get in illegally so they can't get in. That's what logic can do for you.

Absolutely right!!!
The WALL and Muslim Immigration Ban/Extreme Vetting were the main reasons I voted for President Trump.
He makes me feel safe because he genuinely cares about defending our borders and sovereignty.

A lie in the first sentence.

It’s not a Muslim ban. It only pertains to a few nations that have been exporting special problems, and it’s only for investigating applicants a little more thoroughly.

=======================================================

How do you scrutinize a population that has as a goal the elimination of ALL infidels? Every infidel MUST convert OR be killed!

If a "peaceful" couple is admitted to America who will not kill anyone but their children are raised Muslim, then those children will be taught to kill infidels.

The only reasonable answer is that ALL Muslims must be removed from western society. Their murderous cult is NOT compatible with a free, civilized society.

I’m not just talking Mohammedans, although that an obvious starting place.

I’m talking EVERYONE. You’re here 1965 and on? Break out the microscope.

Hell, my girlfriend and some family would fall under “the scrutiny”. So be it.
