Large number isn't everybody. There are many libertarians here, and I have a different viewpoint from them too. I've just been surprised how many people turned out to be authoritarians once one got into power.

This is very welcome news, even if it won't go over well with the large number of authoritarians here.

Agreed.

The notion that refugees from these seven countries represent a particularly grave threat is nonsense, so we're left to speculate on the real motives. Forty years ago, Jimmy Carter put his peanut farm into a blind trust. Trump still ow

This assumes that shared nationality is going to make for stronger bonds. The way things are going, the opposite might be true.

Yep, I've been watching it bouncing in and out for the last 20 minutes or so.

At this point, you probably need a new strategy.

The Iranian Revolution was 37 years ago. What's your point?

by mjmsmith 10y ago
That's true, it doesn't apply to countries that Trump does business with, including the one that produced most of the 9/11 hijackers.

> Almost every member of the GOP I have spoken to knows that these actions are wrong. How about Peter Thiel? What did he say when you spoke to him?

So do the facts make you in favor of this order or not?

You pay more attention to the facts than the motives.

Yes, it is... mysterious. I'd expect the demographic here to be roughly similar to, say, the Ars Technica forums, and yet HN appears to be have many more Trump apologists. I wonder why that is.

The former President who never lost his temper over six years of claims that he wasn't an American? Are you paid to be here too?
352.
by mjmsmith 10y ago
It's only a "political statement" because the President continually repeats the most obvious lies, to the extent that he appears to be mentally ill. Paul Ryan said today that there was no evidence of wide-spread voter fraud.

Does this offer anything that trumptracker.github.io doesn't?

by mjmsmith 10y ago
On the other hand, the fact that a blowhard troll like Dinesh D'Souza passes for an intellectual in the modern Republican party is more evidence that they're definitely not elitists.
