LOL, Imagine being banned from a country where your new 57 floor hotel is sitting and imagine all the government interference you just inherited for your stupidity. What a maroon Trump is showing himself to be.
"Donald Trump is now saying that the Philippines is a “terrorist nation.”
During one of his anti-immigration rallies in Portland, Maine, the Republican nominee listed the country as one of several that shouldn’t be allowed to come into the United States.
“We are letting people come in from terrorist nations that shouldn’t be allowed because you can’t vet them. You have no idea who they are. This could be the great Trojan horse of all time.”
Among the countries he labeled as “terrorist nations” are Afghanistan, Iraq, Morocco, Pakistan, the Philippines, Somalia, Syria, Uzbekistan, and Yemen.
Following his comments, Congressman Joey Sarte Salceda filed a motion in Manila’s House of Representatives to ban Trump from ever coming to the island again.
Per the resolution:
“There is no feasible basis or reasonable justification to the wholesale labeling of Filipinos as coming from a ‘terrorist state’ or they will be a Trojan horse. This comes from a long line of pronouncements where he has demonstrated an unrepentantly negative, dysfunctionally nativist, aggressively adversarial attitude towards immigrants in the U.S. where he aspires to be the leader.”
While Trump appears to take a harsh tone on the Philippines, it should be noted that he has a major real estate investment in the country, and has even praised the island as one of Asia’s best places.
“I’ve always loved the Philippines. I think it is just a special place, and Manila is one of Asia’s most spectacular cities. I know that this project (Trump Tower, a 57-storey luxury apartment which is expected to be completed this year) will be second to none.”
