Donald Trump supporters shrug off the fuss over Muslim travel ban

Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was the most-likely nominee, a possibility that’s appeared more likely since Cruz began rising in the polls. They say the court would not grant the president a blank check and would instead rely on constitutional provisions that protect religious freedom and prohibit discrimination to strike down a ban on Muslim visitors to the United States. Ship them out to the gulf i guess. “They feel that they’re losing their voice”, Huffmon said.

“I think it’s got a huge downside in terms of American foreign policy and I hear this from foreign ministers and others as I travel and engage with people in various countries”, he said on CBS. “I introduced legislation in the Senate that I believe is more narrowly focused at the actual threat, which is radical Islamic terrorism”, he said participating in the final Republican debate of 2015 on Tuesday night.

At a speech at the National Immigrant Integration Conference in Brooklyn only steps away from her campaign headquarters, Clinton repeatedly referenced Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric about Muslims and Mexican immigrants, slamming the Republican front-runner’s proposals to deport immigrants living in the U.S. without permission and prevent Muslims from entering the country. And while no other Republican presidential candidate has entirely co-signed Trump’s idea, they haven’t castigated it much, either. “Nobody cares. And, frankly, I’m the most solid person up here”.

When asked by AP if the ban would apply to USA citizens traveling, working or living overseas, including American servicemen and women who are Muslim, Trump responded via a spokeswoman, “You figure it out!” Obviously, we should consider the former group beyond our reaching. “They’re waiting for the next attack”. At least not yet. “Can’t do it when I get elected”.

The increased security comes as Muslim Americans struggle with the fallout from the attack in San Bernardino, California, and terror attacks in Paris.

To some degree, Ellison and Wasserman Schultz’s letter already does just that. Rather than make a humanist, high-brow argument, Trump’s opponents could portray him as, well, a hysteric and a wuss.

Trump is also calling out members of the media to stop calling IS fighters “masterminds” because, in reality, he says they are thugs and awful people. “They went home and wanted to watch their boyfriends on television”.

Is that approach foolproof? “I sure as hell don’t want to let people that want to kill us and kill our nation use our Internet”.

“They’re struggling to come to terms with the controversy within the Republican presidential campaign – all for good reason”.

So, yes, bring Muslim-Americans to the State of the Union.

“It would defy every norm that is America, so when you ask yourself, whoever you are, if you think you’re going to support Donald Trump, think: Do you believe in the Constitution?”
