I saw the explanation but it was pathetically weak. There was no crisis - no emergency - dictating the action to begin with. There was no imminent terrorist threat forcing an extreme action. There was no reason it couldn't have been quickly vetted by at least some of the relevant agencies. All I'm seeing is you guys making crappy excuses for Trump's messy and poorly executed EO and complete lack of professionalism. And, in case you haven't noticed, Obama isn't president now.
Well, unlike you (obviously) Jihadi murderers very likely listened to what Trump said during his campaign.
And, since you missed it, one of his points was that he was going to crack down HARD on murdering jihadis getting into this Country.
Since there was over two Months between his election and his inauguration, time was at a premium.
He did it, he did it hard and he did it fast.
Like it should have been done.
The murdering Jihadi's aren't going to suddenly get in via the refugee program - they've got a to get through a 2 yr vetting process first. If they were that desperate to get in - well, they could have done so in those 2 months.
In the meantime what has Trump accomplished with this? A huge propoganda gift to ISIS.
"A huge propoganda gift to ISIS."
How is it a huge propaganda gift to ISIS, please elaborate or are you just repeating the MSM Propaganda Memo?
What is ISIS' most potent weapon? Recruits.
How do they get recruits? Propoganda.
What is the best propoganda for recruiting young, disenfranchised, alienated people? Selling them on the idea that the western world is trying to wipe out Islam, is attacking Muslims. Truth doesn't matter here. It doesn't matter whether or not the west is really trying to wipe out Islam - all ISIS needs is the appearance of it, the words of a few Islamophobic nutjobs and what looks like a Muslim ban (one, that would make exceptions for Syrian non-muslim refugees).
Not only that, but it is smack in the face to the many Muslims who are themselves fighting ISIS, and helping us in that fight. It's a smack in the face to the Muslims who helped us in Afghanistan and Iraq, and who's lives and families are in danger because they helped us. Who's going to trust us or assist us in those regions?
