This is how dictatorships start. "I hate the idea of banning people from that religion from the country, making the ones who are here carry special identification, and assuming their guilt because of their genetic makeup. But, sadly, we have to do it in order to protect the real Americans.
"And so I am asking the Supreme Court to suspend the upcoming Congressional and presidential elections, grant me special executive powers and suspend civil rights for all but white Christians to root out the terrorists who threaten out way of life.
“I don’t want to do this, and it breaks my heart that these outsiders have done this to our country, but it must be done.”
Racial profiling is already here, Don. Where ya been?
This is excellent news for Hillary Clinton.
Ya Donald , I’m all for that if you couple it with competency tests and psychological evaluations of Presidential candidates.
…We’re sorry Mr. Trump but you are too mentally unstable to run for president…
Racial profiling. Lol. The fact that this man is disliked by only 96% of AA, and 89% of Hispanics is a miracle.
This “job” you’re doing is…what? Oh yes, the con job you’re pulling (or trying to pull). If it were ever going to be legal to persecute someone because of their appearance, I would hope orange-haired buffoons would be instantly tazed in the jewels if they dared showing their mugs in public.
“They should go out and do their job, let me do my job,” he continued."
Oh you’re doing the job, Donnie, baby. You’re doin’ just fine. Don’t listen to those nattering nabobs of negativity. (Hat tip to the late not-really-lamented Spiro Agnew.)
Question: It Trump (or any candidate) allowed to carry a gun while having Secret Service protection?
Customs officials should be cleared for time travel immediately. Political correctness shouldn’t prevent them going back 30 years to deny the visa applications of American terrorists’ parents.
Donald Rumproast is an idiot.
I love the pivot to the general. I also how Donald Tramp is telling Paul Ryan and the Republican kleptocrats to shush.
It’s successfully used in Israel? Exhibit A. Just look at all the peace and security.
I wonder when the pundits will start talking about how this has hurt Trump financially. His brand is taking a knocking!
Let’s start by profiling people whose grandfathers emigrated from Germany and mothers emigrated from Scotland.
Joe Arpaio for veep!
“Well I think profiling is something that we’re going to have to start thinking about as a country,”
Start - I don’t think you know what word means. Perhaps you should ry a better word.
“Well I think profiling is something that we’re going to have to start thinking about as a country,”…“And I hate the concept of profiling but we have to start using common sense and we have to use our heads.”
“Trump did not explicitly lay out which Americans would face profiling”
Well, we have to presume that he’s talking about angry young males with a fascination with firearms obviously. I agree that I’d hate to have to resort to such measures, but since there’s obviously no way to limit people’s access to high-powered weaponry, it’s the only way.
It’s courageous of him to directly target his base of support this way, so it’s heartening to see that he puts the country above his own interests /s
This from Paul Krugman:
Trump’s agenda to further squash the Republican Party: Shut-up. Which Republicans won’t shut up should be supported. Those, especially Ryan, McConnell, and Priebus, need to be ousted, ASAP, for selling out. It’s roll call time. And I hope there are parties all over America on Election night 2016 if we victoriously squash Trump and his Trogdolytes.
