So he would ban immigrants from Paris, France, Brussels, Belgium, Munich Germany, London, England? Or from the whole of those 4 countries?

Or deport somehow US citizens who are already here?

An expansion isn’t exactly an improvement is it?
The Orange Threat wants to ban random people for random ideas from random nations based on his random policy.

And now he’s claiming that it isn’t about Muslims, it just happens to be people from territories where Muslims tend to exist.

Trump is backing away from the edge into a field of landmines. The Great Pumpkin can’t win for losing.

"…in which he said that the United States should, “immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism.”

Won’t go over well with Peter King (R-IRA).

No pivot - just doubling down on the hatred. I think this strategy is doomed to fail, but I guess we will find out.

You have to remember, even though your own mind rebels at the idea, that this guy is not rational.

So banning only certain Muslims instead of all Muslims is an expansion of his policy? I bet he uses the reasoning when it comes to the size of his johnson.

Yes, I thought after I posted that I should have included that Trump will ban people from Israel, and then there’s also Norway, and so many other African nations, Iraq, Afghanistan, Jordan, Turkey…the list goes on and on.

“I heard about the constitution, great stuff. There are some parts I like and plan to keep.”

@chuck_voellinger: sad part is this entire Trump campaign makes the Onion or any satire seem entirely too realistic. I feel sorry for satirist, they are the first group of people to lose jobs under Trump.
