The travel ban is not a ban on Muslims. It affects only a small percentage of the Muslim population of the world. And it includes North Korea, which, as far as I know, is pretty much Muslim-free.
Because it's the best they can do. I know you've swallowed the fake news Kool Aid, but here are the literal words of someone who helped craft it: Most aren't saying that it's a blanket ban on Muslims overall, but by their own words it's an effort by them to get towards that.
What makes the ban legal is that it doesn't discriminate against religion. It reasonably notes that a specific threat is religious in nature, and then bans the threat from those nations where that religion is practiced, but where anti-US sentiment is also high, and where travelers cannot be properly vetted. They didn't just find some "loophole" to make anti-Muslim policy legal. Instead, they properly defined the problem's religious component while targeting only those nations where the religion coexists with the other components. But I realize how offensive this must seem in an alternate reality where people cannot even say "radical Islamic terrorism".
Now that Donnie and Kim are BFFs, do you think that will change? Does he post here? Or are you simply saying you have no opinion of your own?
It is pretty hard to claim the travel bans discriminate against Islam when three nations with the largest Muslim populations in the world. Indonesia, India, and Pakistan are not part of the ban. That's what 600 million Muslims right there not included.
And not only that but the left on this board keep ignoring it..... It was the Obama administration who picked those seven countries. These countries weren't chosen because they are Islamic. They were chosen because it's impossible to verify anyone's personal data because those countries were having serious problems with vetting their own citizens. Except for North Korea and Iran. They were on the list over terrorism issues. Trump may have wanted to ban the whole Islamic world but he didn't. His administration simply finished what Obama's administration was already working on. Continuation of government and all that......
Neither. I know you think you're calling out conservatives because of an apparent inconsistency between the ban and Pence's tweet. But no such inconsistency exists, so in reality you are simply trying to embarrass us with your own ignorance. Please don't stop on my account. If you actually cared to understand the difference, you could find it by reading Roberts' majority opinion.
