Obama Says World Leaders Are 'Rattled' by GOP Candidate

The Constitution will not stop Trump from stopping any group, for any reason and for any length of time from immigrating here.

Presidents already have this authority given to them by Congress.

Just saying...

The Constitution is as much a limitation and constraint on Trump as it is any any other President and / or politician and / or citizen.
To claim that it isn't, I just don't see how that's possible.

From immigrating here legally, maybe. That the POTUS can simply decree that a given group can't immigrate here is a new one on me.
But as for illegal immigration, the sort that people are rightly upset about, his fence idea is never going to be more than an expensive boondoggle.
 
Well, of course not. Your opinions are what they are, and nothing will change them. You're not ashamed of his stance on women, and totally agree with him that Latinos are "scum." You think he will actually do all of the things he says he'll do, that his wall will actually keep out the invasion of brown people, and that he'll make America great again.

As for me, I think it's already great. I'm not so sure about our federal government and the way it's going just now,but this is already a great nation. Misogyny and ethnocentrism isn't going to improve it of course, but we do have a Constitution that will limit the ability of the conman to do irreparable damage at least, and there's no escaping yet another election in 2020.

We will survive Trump. It's unlikely that he'll be elected, but, if he is, the nation will continue.

Latinos are not scum. Illegal Latinos are scum and criminals.

I am not ashamed of anything.

What exactly is his "stance on women" I am supposed to be ashamed of?

Under U.S. Code, the president has the statutory authority to keep anyone out of the country, for any reason he thinks best. Per 8 USC §1182:

“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”


Love it!
 
See now you went and answered you're own question there.

No, I did not.

My question, "What exactly is his "stance on women" I am supposed to be ashamed of?" stands alone and is derived from another poster's claim that I should be ashamed - according to that poster - because of my support for Trump.

Hence my question.

My statement, "I am not ashamed of anything." stands alone to assure that poster that, regardless of his answer, I will remain unashamed because Hillary, Bill, and Hussein removed the concept of shame from politics.

OK. I actually learned something.
Now, as for the illegal immigrants, can he issue a decree to keep them out as well?
 
Really?
Are you married?
If so, try referring to your wife, in public, as a good piece of ass while deriding other women as pigs and slobs. Oh, and then come here, to California's central valley where "white, not Hispanic" is a minority, and start spouting off about how Mexico is sending us their rapists and drug dealers. Follow that up by, "some of them might be good people, I don't know." See how much attention you get. You can always say, "Hey, Mexican isn't a race, so I'm not a racist."

Go ahead. Try it.
You didn't look up the word did you. Your post here is irrelevant and non responsive. I am sorry that you have swallowed the liberal line against Trump, perhaps you might try thinking for yourself occasionally. Calling a woman a fat ass is not misogyny. If I say a black co-worker is lazy and dishonest, am I a racist? According to your (lack of) reasoning it would be. Let me help you out here: Trump is an equal opportunity offender. He launched relentless personal attacks on Cruz, Rubio and Bush. Does that mean he hates men? Is he a racist because Cruz and Rubio are Hispanic? Or is your argument just stupid?

mi·sog·y·ny
məˈsäjənē/Submit
noun
dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women.
"she felt she was struggling against thinly disguised misogyny"

Yep. Anyone who talks about women the way Trump does fits the definition to a T. Does he dislike men as well? Only if they're running against him. Is he a racist? I don't know. Listen to the crap... I mean statements that come out of his mouth, and decide for yourself.
 
I have a shocking revelation for you.

We, the Trump supporters, are never going to be shamed out of supporting him. No matter what you guys will "discover", say, insinuate, or throw at us or him.

Ain't gonna happen.

You've made up your mind so you don't want to be confused by the truth.

The problem to be faced by rational Americans will come when the Trump campaign goes down in flames. The Trumpites will be absolutely positively sure that the election was stolen by the Soros-backed 'establishment' which allowed hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of illegal immigrants to vote in return for promises of lifelong welfare. The True Believers, the III Percenters, the Oath Keepers and their ilk will believe, with zero factual basis but they will believe nevertheless that the New World Order led by the Illuminati stole the election in order to create a new socialist state in which True Christians and Second Amendment defenders will be pushed into re-education camps - gulags for Real Americans.

They're not sure how to take a presidential candidate who engages in childish name calling (Romney "walks like a penguin", Warren is "Pocahontas", Sanders is "Crazy Bernie", calling women "pigs" "slobs" and "bimbos")

Well, I'm not sure how to take him either. I'd rather not, but then if the people want him as president, then he'll be president.

and we're Americans! We don't care what the rest of the world thinks, right?

If the world leaders are rattled by Donald Trump, it goes to show how weak their leadership really is.
 
Thank you for expressing so well the mentality of the Trump supporters.

"The MENTALITY Of Trump Supporters"?
If you were HALF as intelligent as Donald Trump,
you'd be twice as smart as you now are.

Bingo, more importantly it shows conclusively how little faith they have in their systems as well as in their ability to present a strong enough case to convince the little people that they know what they are doing, and that they are right...if this that is attributed to them is the thuth This is one of those cases where no matter what the truth his the elite are shown to be off the rails, either they think this attempt to manipulate us is a good idea (if that is what it is) when it is in reality a colossally stupid idea (if that is what it is), and if it is the truth is proves that they need to be replaced because they are lost.

THere is no cure for stupid, and that we have in the elite class now.

It's Time for Trump.

Seriously.

He said Trump SUPPORTERS, who often strike me as either:
1. Blindly or willingly unaware of how the world actually works, or
2. Political nihilists who just want to see the entire system crash and burn, with little to no regard for what might replace it.

I think the system could use a good shakeup. A coarse, self-aggrandizing blowhard who has drummed up support by playing to people's oft-baseless fears and xenophobia, is not the guy to do it.

You need to take people as they are, not as how they would be in your utopia if you were to build one. Any political figure that hooks large numbers of the disenfranchised and brings them back into the political system is doing a public good, regardless of your personal opinion on these people and that they believe. It just could be that you are the one who is wrong you know.

Oh, I'm sure Trump is smart enough.
It's Trump's chumps I'm not so sure about.

Nice ad hominem attack, though. Did you learn that from the Donald? He's quite good at it.

How is your average Trump supporter "disenfranchised"? Do you consider disenfranchisement to mean "not getting your way 100 percent of the time"?

Be ignored when we are not being told that the fact we dont agree with instructions means that we are too stupid to talk.

To be allowed to talk.

Seriously.

Unfortunately,there isn't anyone in the current political picture to be the guy/girl we are looking for. Hard to believe with a country of 300+ million people.

Wait, what? Who is preventing you from talking?

That's nonsense.

WOW!

I think you dont get out enough.

Watch how fast you get fired from your job now for believing the "wrong" things and putting a voice behind it. We have become positively barbaric. And Fascist. Hostile to freedom. Trump is part of the fix.

Private business entities making decisions based on what best represents their company (and boosts their bottom line) is "barbaric"?
