    Yeah I know, right. Republicans are set up to kill millions. I can't believe the Markets are going up when we're at the precipice of a nuclear holocaust, destruction, and a government run on fear!

    WERE ALL GONNA DIE DONT THEY GET IT!!!!

    Oh so you're a conspiracy theorist. I guess you'll never be convinced that President Trump is not a racist even if his entire staff is black and he marries a black. Can you name one specific example of President Trump being racist?

    not sure what you mean, we should treat American Muslims equally

    and we should treat our Muslims allies with respect

    and we should destroy Muslims Terrorist groups like ISIS

    American Muslims are treated equally, in many ways they are more equal than others. Organizations like CAIR on the other hand should also be treated equally...just like other anti-American organizations aiding and abetting Islamic terrorism. This is not happening just yet.

    Only if it's mutual.... which it isn't.

    I don't see the our Muslim "allies" treating the US with respect and I don't see American Muslims mistreated by the US government as you implied. Do you?

    By who? Why? Equally with whom?

    Even when these allies treat us like sh*t?

    And as you admitted in your previous post (#32) the US government does not mistreat Muslim americans so I am not quite sure why your brought up the "Muslim americans should get equal treatment" thing in the first place. Not only they should, they do :)

    I never said they did, I said they should not, I said they should be treated equal, you seem to be getting upset about that, not sure why

    http://www.cnn.com/2010/OPINION/09/13/zelizer.bush.muslims/index.html

    "Those who feel like they can intimidate our fellow citizens to take out their anger don't represent the best of America; they represent the worst of humankind, and they should be ashamed of that kind of behavior," Bush said.

    When you feel like you can step up to the big boy table and be a real man by challenging the facts I presented, which are all true proposals as public policy and have proved to us all that those same policies have not only been disastrous but are destined for failure once again. It's real simple; the math does not support these same gestapo tactics that the new gestapo cabinet will implement.

    And by the way, if all you have to bargain with in this debate is to talk about pink elephants, your pacifier nonsense is not something I have much interest in.Fourth grade Trump style debates are not something I have time for.

    Are they? Who cares? What do you even mean by "muslims"? I doubt you are able to grasp the nuances, as proved by your generalization.

    "Muslims Are Outraged Over Trump’s Cabinet Picks" - relax, I'm sure that Muslims are smart enough, caring enough, to be, as we speak, frantically working to improve and modernize their religion's texts so that the anti-Muslim forces will in the future have no theological legs to stand on when they try to criticize the Islamic religion - so relax.

    That's trump voters for you. The only thing they need to approve of a cabinet pick is that it upsets muslims. Never mind are they qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable. Are they trolling the right people? Good grief.

    The internet troll presidency, brought to you by the feeble minded.

    You'll have to actually read the thread sometime. It'll answer your question.

    Well considering every Muslim in the US is there legally (Immigration act 1952)... and seeing all Muslims want to do is over throw another countries Government and enforce their barbaric insanity.....making a place unattractive to Muslims is a good thing. And who gives a rats ass if Muslims aren't happy about it??. They don't give a s**t about you, or your culture or your beliefs..they want to destroy it all...they are never happy about anything. Bunch of A holes who can just F off and die...the sooner the better. F**k Islam.

    Here's an idea .... your 'minorities' could do as my family has done (yes, non-whites in a white majority nation ... OMG), and don't give a sh!t about old white bigots in forgotten corners of the nation, and succeed anyway. Get yourself and your kids educated to a high standard in the public system, save all your money, only borrow what you can afford, buy a house, pay your bills, don't do drugs, or smoke, or gamble, and just generally don't be a (*)(*)(*)(*) up. It's as easy (if not actually easier) for us to succeed as it is for whites. It has been so for at least two decades.

    He has to be the right kind of black, apparently. Maybe a bit darker?

    But they're not racist :)

    He's saying that they're already equal. As is anyone of any race or religion in a secular democracy like America.

    they ARE treated equally. equality was installed decades ago.

    why are my lefties so behind?

    Oh yeah ... because being mean to people is SOOOO much worse than blowing people up. I would submit that willingness to tackle terrorism is about the best qualification a western leader can have in 2016. If you think handing out platitudes to people who despise you is more important in a leader, then I'm sorry for you.

    Unfortunately, our progressive friends are arrogant (and/or naïve) enough to imagine that in taking the high road, they will be so impressive that Mohammedans will relinquish antipathies and join them in a group hug.

    You took the words right out of my mouth. I don't even bother researching Trumps picks, I just watch for reactions like this and then I know Trump must be making the right choice.
