So far, 20 GOPers have announced opposition to or questioned Trump's executive order banning travelers and refugees from 7 countries from entering the U.S.
Sen. John McCain: "There's so much confusion out there," McCain said on "Face the Nation." "Obviously this process and these conclusions were not vetted." He warned the order could be used as propganda by ISIS for recruiting.
Rep. Carlos Curbelo: "I expect that these executive orders are in fact temporary and that once the Administration strengthens the vetting process, we can continue our tradition of welcoming those who are persecuted in an orderly manner and without any kind of religious test."
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: "I object to the suspension of visas from the seven named countries because we could have accomplished our objective of keeping our homeland safe by immediate implementation of more thorough screening procedures."
Rep. Charlie Dent: "This is ridiculous. I guess I understand what his intention is, but unfortunately the order appears to have been rushed through without full consideration. You know, there are many, many nuances of immigration policy that can be life or death for many innocent, vulnerable people around the world."
Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick: "While we certainly need to enhance our current vetting process and significantly reform our immigration policies to make sure terrorists are not exploiting our nation's proud tradition of freedom and acceptance, the President's policy entirely misses the mark."
Rep. Justin Amash: "It's not lawful to ban immigrants on basis of nationality. If the president wants to change immigration law, he must work with Congress."
Rep. Barbara Comstock: "The President's Executive Order issued yesterday went beyond the increased vetting actions that Congress has supported..."
Sen. Susan Collins: "The worldwide refugee ban set forth in the executive order is overly broad and implementing it will be immediately problematic.

This is absolutely false. Obama did it with Iraq for 6 months. A President has that authority. Here is a link to the law:

The visual suspects?
To ALL Freepers....call these asswipes and tell them what you think!!
Here come the RINOS, spineless jellyfish.
Ha, usual suspects.
pING!
More media lies and GOPe parasite political treason. They just stink and should have been voted out LONG AGO.
Yeah? But the rest of them (millions) do not.
McCain? McCain???!!!
Knock me over with a feather.
Every one of these idiots is a vote whore.
There. Fixed it.
20 GO-PEE congress critters.
Not shocked that despicable John McCain, my senator, is stabbing President Trump in the back. McCain is a miserably failed presidential candidate and is insanely jealous of Trump. The worm known as Senator Flake is interestingly silent so far. He usually has his nose completely up Mccain’s @ss. Flake’s senate seat is up for grabs in 2018 and I hope he’s getting nervous.
Trudeau would probably let McCain immigrate to Canada. Much more amenable to his way of thinking up there.
Can you believe this ars hole admits he is confused? When has this jackass been anything else?
Those rats / rinos will expose themselves.
I was just looking at this site “axios” then I saw it was akin to politico,all I needed to see.
I hate to sound like a broken record but we cant afford to take any more primaries for these rinos for granted any more.
Most of these people need to be primarried and it will take a nat. org. or nat. funding to get the job done.
What that means is when their terms come up and they try and re-up we need to primary their asses .and we need to have our stuff together long before they are up.
I have three on the list which means I have done a terrible job in getting rid of their asses.
