    The fear of lefties is at an all time high and so is my amusement. As long as some view President Trump as "tearing the country apart" I will sleep well. The lefts view of the country is wrong.

    This is a total garbage piece and it is FAKE NEWS.

    1. Trump supporters do not view his programs as divisive but curing the ill's of the previous couple administrations.

    2. This is NOT a MUSLIM ban. It is a moratorium on new visas until procedures can be reviewed for the vetting of new applications. George Soros is responsible for most of the paid demonstrations at the airports.

    3. The refugee program should be halted until all procedures are reviewed for vetting the people trying to claim asylum. Muslims are not the only ones trying to enter the USA.

    4. The majority of Americans agree with Trump on the moratorium and the halting of refugees according to the Rasmussen poll. Just because you have anarchists, paid protesters and democrat losers out on the streets doesn't mean they are the majority.

    5. The Attorney General serves at the pleasure of the President and as an attorney is responsible to represent his views. She was a Democrat activist and very much a activist for Hillary Clinton. She should have resigned but decided to be an obstructionist. Trump had no other choice.

    6. Trump is not in violation of the law or Constitution. The Constitution is for citizens of the USA. People who are not citizens do not have the same Constitutional rights as citizens. Known as the McCarran-Walter Act, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 allows for the "Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by the President, whenever the President finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States. The President may, by proclamation, and for such a period as he shall deem necessary, may suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants or impose any restrictions on the entry of aliens he may deem to be appropriate.

    7. The McCarran-Walter Act also requires that an applicant for immigration must be of good moral character and in agreement with the principles of our Constitution.

    Therefore, one could surmise that since the Quran forbids Muslims to swear allegiance to the U.S. Constitution, technically, ALL Muslims should be refused immigration to OUR country. I would be afraid also to trust any Muslim.

    8. The US is not at war with all muslims but is at war with radical groups of Muslim's who wish us harm.

    What misinformation? So, tell me, if we let all the Muslims into the country and they eventually take over the powers of government and enforce Sharia law will my first decision have to be "am I Sunni or Shia"?

    I feel that both houses of congress will eventually come to their sense's and impeach him for his violations of the US Constitution and for also disobeying a ruling from the courts. :)

    If you have ever been to the Grand Canyon you would know Global warming is just a stage in the grand scheme of things. They have found dinosaur bones in the artic. It use to be warm there . I hate cold weather and look forward to global warming.

    I too use to live in the inner city and witnessed the crime, poverty and violence and decided to better my life and leave.

    This is a fact with more than enough evidence to prove it. And yet the Hillary voters shamelessly accuse trump of creating the division? Well, if you ever find one of them with intellectual honesty and integrity, please sir, give me a link to such a being. Until that time I can only think this crowd is totally devoid of it, and are not only non serious people, but nefarious in their lack of character. Kinda like Hillary, although it is hard to imagine anyone could match her long history of this.

    I have watched this division arise, grow exponentially and coincidently it coincides perfectly with the scheme of neoliberal, open borders free trade globalization. I figure the division had to be in place in order to keep this insane treason of taking away living wages not questioned much, which it has not been until sanders and trump broke the taboo. If you can keep the voters fighting one another, you can pick their pockets, and it is an old ploy, and it works.

    Of course, the really serious and intelligent people cannot be divided to such a sick and unhealthy degree, for they understand what is actually going on, and it looks like these kind of minds are in short supply. Yet it took a couple decades for working people to wake up, and understand the scheme Perot tried to warn us about was in fact a scheme, which our gov't that runs on bribery was complicit in giving us. And then the politicians told us you should not ever question it, implying it was some kind of inevitable natural law. When it was simply a choice made, not some kind of natural economic law.


    I see no end to it, unless we have ww3, conventional non nuclear which requires the dems to have to literally fight for their lives and nation. For at this point in the game, they are impervious to rationality, logic, reason, for irrational tribalism is more powerful with this group. For the dems must be forced to face reality, as they are dragged out kicking and screaming from their alternative reality created in their own minds. Once they have to face it, forced into it by survival, this is the only thing that will save their minds from this alternate reality they have created by thinking driven by ideological thinking, which never works out in the real world, due to this thing called human nature. They are under the delusion that they can change human nature, yet they are powerless to do that. This is their great and destructive flaw, and only having to fight for their lives can ever change their minds.

    Pssst . . . the kneejerk and endless playing of the Race Card by leftists (as you just played it) for EVERYTHING under the sun for the last eight years has helped divide the nation, and Obama contributed in that process of division because he never told deplorable basket type leftists to cease playing that card. Instead he egged them on. But then again as a community organizer he was trained to be a professional race agitator.

    The Senate did, but not the house who voted to impeach him. :)

    That may be your opinion but that wasn't the opinion of the Senate, so you'll just have to live with it. :)

    Trump IS the chaff, so I guess he knows what to look for.

    . . . . But do you really believe it is wise to let someone so obviously OUT of control be IN control???. . . . He promised to unify Congress, but can you even IMAGINE that happening??

    HE'S CAUSING EVEN MORE DIVISION IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. . . . His reign will be short.

    I wasn't aware Clinton's supporters were instrumental in the three executive orders that caused thousands upon thousands to protest around the world, strand legal refugees, cause dissension with three key allies (U.K., Germany, and France), cause dissension with Republican leaders, and cause lawsuits and injunctions from four federal judges.

    Gee, her supporters did all that. Shame on them.:roll:

    I must have missed your criticism of the OP. Where did I go wrong?

    Wow, the left caused this. Four federal judges issued injunctions against Trump's orders. Two state attorney generals have sued Trump. Trump fired the acting attorney general. Prominent members of his party have voiced opposition to Trump's orders. They include Senators McConnell, Graham, McCain, and House speaker Paul Ryan. It goes without saying Democrats in Congress were in rebellion over the orders, and one Senator wept in dismay. Another Senator already has proposed legislation to stop the executive orders. The leaders of the U.K., France, and Germany have condemned the attack. A petition to cancel Trump's visit to the U.K. has gotten over one million signatures, and the issue will be discussed in parliament.

    I could have sworn Trump was responsible for that chaos. Please explain how the left was responsible for these reactions.
