just wanted to ask one thing in the wave of anti trump media and opinion.

why doesn't the opinion of anyone else matter? The stuff in the media about banning people travelling is wrong for sure and i am not discussing that. All the americans who voted for Trump and believe it to be a good thing, why is everyone disregarding their opinion in all of this? Trump is doing what was on his agenda, people backed that idea and millions of americans backed it to vote for him.

Dare i say it, that the opinions of millions has been glossed over in the past month or so in favour of the 'right' opinion and reading through this thread alone you can see a microcosm of anyone disagreeing with it all being aggressively put in their place, playfully or otherwise.

I just don't get why people can believe their opinion is right and other opinions are wrong to the point of ignoring the other side exists.

I think, what it boils down to, is the fact that banning a religion from entering your country is a bit wrong.

Yes, a bit wrong, but in this case also illegal. A "religious test" is unconstitutional, regardless of how many Americans or Presidents like the idea.
 
How when the vast majority of muslims can still go to the USA.
Ps 6 of the first people sent back were christian

Because he has banned only Muslims from major Muslim countries. He knows what he is doing - stirring religious animosity.

He does know what he is doing it plays well with his supporters
He will win anyway. will do what he said or it will not go through and the first thing that goes wrong he will say told you so, win win for Donald.
People are playing into his hands, he will turn into look they all hate the good old USA.

Trump voters might have a legitimate concern over what they perceive as rampant, uncontrolled immigration, but Trump has not approached the issue as an adult-minded politician but more as a racist demagogue. This is definitely an unpatriotic way to approach immigration in the USA, given that this young country is built on immigration (Trump's mom was born in Scotland and his grandfather was born in Germany). And since 1965, the US banned immigration based on religion or nationality. Trump reversed that, but not based on any seemingly rational policy, but one based on campaign-trail xenophobia; not to mention that Steve Bannon is a dead-beat dad and racist, and Trump's top advisor. One also wonders about the motivation. None of the home countries of the 9-11 hijackers were on his list of banned countries--and the countries left off his list also correspond to places where Trump has business ties or seeking them. But to be fair, the countries on Trump's list were already targeted for "restricted immigration" (not an outright ban, though) by the Obama administration in 2015. But more generally, there isn't much rationality or "rightness," if you prefer, to the idea that restricting or banning folks from a small subset of countries is going to do anything for national security or job creation...it's all theater, and thus perceived by many, including me, to be just plain wrong.

No, he has only banned Muslims from Shia-run (Iran, Syria, Yemen, Iraq) or minor Muslim (Libya, Sudan, Somalia) states. The main Sunni states are all unaffected, despite the ban being a response to fundamentalist terrorism that has overwhelmingly been carried out by the usual groups.
 
Trump is a mouthpiece for a group of end times believers set on bringing about the apocalypse and the rapture....look at his closest aides and cabinet.

It is, seriously, the only explanation for such an obnoxious bellwhiff as him being given legitimacy that I can come up with...
Wonder what he would be like to have a pint with ?
