- darkerside 6y agoOf course hindsight is easy. Does that mean we shouldn't make use of it? And yes, like the travel ban, which clearly was the wrong solution for the problem. I don't blame the Trump administration for failing to predict the future, but I do see that they willfully ignored bad news over and over again and in fact continue to do so even today, which is completely unconscionable.
