If what Trump was suggesting was to stop millions of middle eastern refugees with no identification or paperwork of any kind from flooding your country I would agree with you 100%.

I THINK that's what Trump is saying too. He has repeatedly said that the ban on travel from those 7 countries (which were all picked by the Obama Administration as hotbeds of terrorism) was going to be for 90 days.
And he has said that he wants the security officials of our country to use that time to figure out a way to better vet people coming in.
The media has turned that into "racism" and a "religious ban".
It's crazy.
ISIS and Al Queda have declared "war" on Western Civilization.
I'm pretty sure that a travel ban has always been put on country's we were at war with.
People weren't flying in from Japan, Germany, and Italy during WW2
People weren't allowed to hop on an airplane from North Vietnam to the U.S. during the Vietnam War.
I think it's just common sense to be careful.
Why risk our actual citizens lives over this?
We can all HOPE nothing happens. But what if it does? Is it worth gambling the lives of our citizens?
Pres. Obama and candidate Hillary Clinton seemed to think it was okay.
The media seems to think it's okay (hell, they seem to think that total open borders would be just fine...not even sure why we even HAVE any immigration laws).
Pres. Trump doesn't think it's a good thing.
He won the election. He has the legal power to control immigration.
The 9th circuit (or 9th "Circus" as they are derisively referred to in the legal community) overstepped their judicial bounds in my understanding.
And it's not the first time they have done that.
That is why the Democrat's went "judge shopping" in the first place.
They knew exactly what part of the country they wanted this case heard in.
If they had took this to court in Texas or Pittsburgh or Kansas City or Oklahoma or Alabama, etc. they would have been shot down in flames out of the gate.
Anyway, this is all politics. And it just goes to show that NONE of these politicians (Republican or Democrat) give a damn about the country or it's people.
They will all do anything for POWER.
And right now the Democrat Party is horribly beat down. Federal, State, and Local govt. is controlled by Republicans.
So the Democrat political strategy is to try and destroy Trump's presidency.
From what I have seen and heard from real people (not CNN or other media b.s.)...the people who voted for Trump are happy and excited.
The business community is happy and excited. The economy is on a major upswing and the stock market is now at record levels.
Just imagine how much better things would be right now IF CNN and other media outlets weren't attacking Trump every day.
Or paid "protestors" weren't acting like jackasses nationwide?
Or if Hollywood elites weren't falling over each other to call Pres. Trump a new "Hitler".
All of that negativity drives the country down...and even with all of it...the economy is still moving forward.
Too bad that the political bullshit has to slow things down the way it is doing.
