NO SOROS AND NO *^&%$#@$# EXCEPTIONS TO THE MUSLIM BAN- I'm upset, I can use all caps
Sadiq Khan, the new mayor of London, as I understand it was not looking to come here and stay under any kind of work or student or other long term visa.
If he is a visiting Mayor, then he comes and goes back.
I believe Trump’s ban was more for people coming here to stay for any kind of duration or to immigrate.
Personally, I believe Sadiq Khan, who has had supportive things to say about Islamic extremists in the past, should be put on an absolute no fly list.
This London Mayor may be Muslim, but he has been vetted, probably more thoroughly than our own president. So, yes, this big town mayor could be an exception.
See, Trump is going to reverse on everything that matters.
If I claim that I am a refugee, can I just move to London with no problems? Can I sign up for their welfare too? I just wonder if they have the same rules or if they discriminate against Christian American?
He isn’t immigrating here.
The POS mayor said that he considered moderate Muslims "Uncle Toms." He also defended an AQ terrorist. If anyone shouldn't be allowed in our country, it's him.
Stepped on his crank again, it’s Yuuuge!
Of course, that does not change Trump's stance.
Mr. Trump certainly does relish unpredictability!!! This stance is a bit of a surprise and gave me some pause at first.
However, he apparently believes the new London Mayor might be able to lead by example—perhaps becoming a valuable ally in “figuring what the hell is going on” in the war on Radical Islamic Terrorism!!!! It is a bitter pill to swallow right now; hopefully President Trump can work with this guy to come up with answers!
It’s tragic how so much of Europe has been overtaken by Muslims, sharia law practices and unspeakable crimes. I know atrocities are destroying Germany, France and the Scandinavian nations.
I pray Mr. Trump WON’T REGRET offering the proverbial olive branch!!!
I wouldn’t let this creep in the country. He should be on the no fly list.
Not sure if Trump’s voters can keep him out of trouble for 4 years, but sure hope so. He does check in and so far, he listens to his block... I think...
No video link and a big cut right at the heart of the quote? I can’t trust anything the media says about Trump without verifying with the video. The media is completely dishonest and cannot be trust.
Sounds as though Trump is giving him the benefit of the doubt. IF he does a good job, etc.
Someone needs to get the news to Trump’s people that this mayor is the usual type of horrible mohammedan. I saw some stuff about him, maybe I’ll put it together and send it to them. Hopefully Islamist experts are advising Trump and will give him a clue about this mayor.
“I was happy to see that [he was elected]”
Say what?
Anybody else happy this guy was elected?
I agree with you.
The Islamic problem is so pernicious that it needs to be stopped dead in it’s tracks.
Trump isn’t going to be keeping the ideologically pure very comfortable during this election season. This is a classic example.
When you think about it, saying that the Mayor of London should be banned from visiting the US because he’s Muslim is pretty extreme. Britain is an old ally, and until it goes Sharia we have to treat British public officials with some deference. Doesn’t mean you have to be a pushover for Jihad by migration. Trump the moderate, without changing his base stance.
When Trump says he hopes he does a good job, I’m sure a good job includes keeping the nasty aspects of Islam out of government. Doesn’t mean Trump expects or assumes that will happen. Just means Trump is open to the possibility this guy isn’t going to be as bad as he has been up to now. Trump the moderate, without changing his base stance.
Meanwhile, Trump gets blasted for “backsliding” on his muslim ban, after he was blasted just the other day for “doubling down” on it.
It’s going to be a long and interesting run up to the general, as he tries to lure some of those who think he’s too extreme or too brash to pull the lever for him.
He always said there would be exceptions, especially for leaders in other countries. The London mayor is documented, we know who he is, and he is not immigrating here.
He will just be visiting, if he ever does come here...and why would they even ask Trump that question?
When has a MAYOR!! of a European city visit the U.S. and there was some sort of fuss made?
The media is trolling and trying to get Trump off balance.
As long as DT said “could” and not “would”...It means zip!
What is the problem?
The whole point of the ban is unvetted, unknown individuals that may have terrorist ties entering the country to stay.
He is well documented well vetted, he is just visiting for a few days..
Done, add him to the ‘allowed’ list, and then continue to work on a way to vet the rest of the Muslim individuals.
