I'd like to correct the quote:
Donald J. Trump is calling for a
total and complete shutdown
of Muslims entering the United States
until our country's representatives
can figure out what is going on. [1]
That's why the current order has set duration of 90 days, and it's announced that subsequent immigration from the affected seven countries will be allowed, subject to tougher vetting.

- marcell 10y agoYes, that is the full quote. The "90 days" is not what is at issue with the original quote or the Executive Order. Again--the details are not the issue, the entire frame of thinking is.
- simonh 10y agoWhat is going on is that muslims such as the Iraqi government and Iraqi army are fighting IS tooth and claw right now. An Iraqi that had family members murdered for helping the US has been prevented from getting on a plane to the US. This ban is affecting thousands of people who support the US and some who are risking their lives to help the US fight terrorism. Trump had no idea what he was doing when he made that quote, has no idea now. What better idea in 90 days? Cancel this order? Meanwhile his actions are increasing the risks to the US. This is all about posturing and victimising a minority that's easy to demonize and nothing to do with security.
- JohnTHaller 10y agoThe same kind of better ideas like the GOP's perfect replacement for "Obamcare" of course. It's going to be great. Trust me.
