Donald Trump defends Muslim ban: ‘We’re at war’

December 8, 2015

After sparking perhaps the biggest controversy in a presidential campaign filled with them, a defiant Donald Trump is defending his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States.

“Something has to be done,” Trump said on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” one of several phone interviews the Republican frontrunner participated in Tuesday morning. “What I’m doing is I’m calling very simply for a shutdown of Muslims entering the United States — and here’s a key — until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.”

Trump’s plan, which was released Tuesday, calls for a “total and complete shutdown" of all Muslims entering the country in response to the recent terror attacks in San Bernardino, Calif., and Paris.

His campaign initially indicated the ban would include Muslim-Americans traveling overseas. But Trump said Tuesday there would be exceptions.

“If a person is a Muslim, goes overseas and comes back, they can come back,” Trump said. “They’re a citizen. That’s different.“

I beginning to believe the silly small childish intellects in the DC Political/Media machine are so brainwashed with PC nonsense they simply cannot be made to be see reason by any event. I was thinking maybe Paris would FINALLY wake up the US Political/Media class but now think not even a nuke bomb going off in a US City will make them grow up.

We are at war. We need to close our borders to all immigration. Only on emergency basis shall we take in immigrants. Build that wall and bomb ISIS until the sand glows.

The only way DC elites will “wake up” is if the problem hits them personally. As long as its just your family dying for their ideology its not a concern.

It’s only “controversial” to the PC Psychological Terrorism tyrants. SurveyUSA polls show that republicans overwhelming support his plan, as do 30+ percent of democrats, and 40+ percent of independents.

Unbelievable Trump is the ONLY candidate who truly gets it. In the old days, nearly everyone would’ve gotten it. Today, few do. Today, you could pull a liberal away from an ISIS sword that was coming down on his neck and he’d start screaming that you were a bigot. It’s gotten so bad, I’m not even sure Donald Trump can save us because liberals don’t want to be saved, not if it also involves saving a conservative.

Actually it is liberals and muslims who are waging a war to the death for influence in government domestic policy matters. Most would not know it because liberals keep saying it is Christians that upset muslims.

I am feeling it — Trump’s ‘shock and awe’!

Obama is also at war, with us ‘bitter clinger’ Christians:

We could easily ban all unskilled labor. Only college grads for starters, and if they come from terror states we could test for eye dialation when certain images are shown to them.

Time for America to get tough like during WW2. We need tough leaders, not weak, bleeding heart liberals.

Islam has been at war with the US since the WTC was bombed way back in 1993, but Clinton and Obama have refused to acknowledge it.

Islam has been at war with the US since the Barbary Pirates. Americans enacted revenge when many volunteered to fight the Turks to free the Greeks.

The actual refusal of the administration to bring in the Christian refugees AND actually deport the few who managed to arrive is proof Obama is on the side of Islam over reason.
