    Let me help you liberals out, since you're not even paying attention to the facts, but instead just pushing the narrative you hope to be true.

    1) There is no Muslim ban. That is fake news.
    2) Let's wait for the facts on this mosque fire. There have been many "false flag" incidents...

    Were the previous hate crimes committed against this very same place a hoax?

    What hoax is being committed here? I haven't seen anyone say that it was definitely an attack and arson by a person who is hateful of Islam.

    That's exactly what the thread title implies.

    True, Trump only banned Muslims from countries that haven't attacked us, or that he PERSONALLY has no business interests in....

    the countries were chosen by Obama or i should say they were coded and identified by intelligence under Obama as jihadi countries. Trump had nothing to do with it, but he will probably add countries to the list.

    What is your incorrect contention exactly? That Trump didn't block those countries to make himself money? Nobody becomes president to make money DD. The whole point of having money is so you can sit on your ass and do what you want. Being president contradicts that. This is as stupid a statement as claiming Bush invaded Iraq for oil.

    The fact that it is just irresponsible rhetoric and absolutely false isn't going to make them stop saying it. They might as well be making terrorist recruiting propaganda the way they are spinning this travel ban.....and they don't care. It's just more politics over country nonsense.

    FAKE NEWS!!! The truth is that no commercial luxury real estate business man would do business in high risk countries. you and everyone else need to use your heads and not try and create conspiracy where there is none. dude like may other business folks would never have done business in those 7 countries because those countries are way too high risk. But he's got towers in Turkey, a golf course resort in Dubai, he's planning a massive billion dollar resort in Indonesia (only the worlds most populous muslim country!!!), plus several other properties in muslim countries. Ban has no connection to his business interests, so take your tin foil hat off and calm down. Unless you find it shocking and appalling that a commercial luxury property business doesn't do business in 7 of the most dangerous countries on earth? Someone quick, alert the presses!

    Bottom line, they had a good idea and rushed it creating screwed up situations all over the place. Call it a causality of policy that hopefully they will work out sooner rather than later. Very unfortunate and probably avoidable (pre-screening, pre-registration, plans, etc.. before 90-day stay went into effect) but they've got no choice but to rush and fix the kinks now.

    The status quo regarding Muslim immigration before Trump was even better...

    I dare you to debate me in nuance on this subject matter.

    That doesn't explain why TRUMP doesn't include these countries, stop living in the past. And the 2nd half of your post is complete bs, being president doesn't contradict Trump wanting money in any way and it also doesn't correlate to Bush/Iraq anyhow. But guess logic suddenly doesn'T apply to you people when it comes to Trump.

    wow so much hate here for Muslims by bobby, cml, dei, et all. Why don't you guys roast some pork and smoke em out?

    You guys have been corrupted by hate so badly you actually live in some delusional world where you think you are on the side of justice.

    I guess this is how people enable horrible things to happen in the world. With these type of people who can't question anything.

    It's incredible how Trump is using the presidency to punish countries that did not serve his business interests, and rewarding countries like Russia that did.

    2016 Hottest tourist spots: Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan,Libya, Somalia and Yemen. Trump will teach them for not letting him setup resorts in their countries.

    The left wingnuts come up with the most asinine things to say.

    It's not about what countries he chose, but the ones he didn't.

    So he should have included all Muslim countries .... to fit your narrative that this is a ban on Muslims?

    I've got a friend (a Muslim) who owns his own international shipping business and he also doesn't do business in those 7 countries (and a few more) because of the risk to his partners, employees, and assets. Does that make him a racist?
