People do realize that Iran is one country out of multiple that has a religion predominately comprised of Muslims? Had Carter turned away all citizens from Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, etc. that would make more sense. Something tells me Trump wasn't thinking of Jimmy Carter when he stated what he did. Or if he was, the irony is hilarious in that Republicans are using Jimmy Carter to make a point.

 

I would think if those other countries would have been taking Americans hostage that he would have taken a similar action. It's also rather comical that some people would label these actions as totally unrelateable.

That is what I've been saying about Cruz. Trump's lost voters will be his gain. He knows this and why Cruz has staying power.

 

I should qualify my statement regarding the Republican party chasing away Trump, that's if there is enough party backlash that he drops in the polls, I thought this would have happened weeks ago, now I'm beginning to wonder.

Religion versus nation.

 

I stand by my phraseology.

 

What if he said Nation of Islam? :idunno: :jump:

Trumps very business savvy and an economic genius.

 

However, in my opinion he's still an idiot. Most of his rants, tirades, and not so well thought out comments prove that. I just don't want a mad man like that in the White House building 1,000 mile high walls and pressing buttons on nuclear launch buttons.

 

Trump is well leveraged. A lot of that comes from his Dad. I would not qualify a guy who has had multiple businesses file bankruptcy as "economic genius."

The McCarran act only applies to citizens of countries, not an entire religion.

Trump is the first major political candidate in my lifetime to have total disregard for Political Correctness. All major political candidates craft positions to win a nomination, craft a different position for the general election , and deliver something completely different when elected. Trumps communication is sincere and transparent. He is despised by the Republican aristocrats who are frightened by the possibility they will have a President of their own party they cannot control.

 

Trump speaks to three of my hot button issues : Immigration, Competition with Foreign Labor and National Security.

 

Before condemning Trump for his statements of banning Muslims from entering the country, you really need to read the Koran. The Koran openly instructs worshipers to kill for the sake of spreading Islam. The peacefull secularized Muslims actually do not interpret the Koran correctly. What we call "radicalized Muslims" actually do interpret the Koran correctly. If you want a separate discussion, challenge me on this.

Where have you been while I have been fighting this fight? Ive been saying this for months. And I certainly agree with you! I have never in my life seen people so blind....

"Jimmy Carter was the worst President ever (until Bark Obama)"

 

"Trump's proposal is what everyone wants, and Jimmy Carter did it so it must be alright (although not the same)"

If the determination for financial genius is taking terrible situations and turning them around to benefit themselves and making a gazillion dollars, let's elect Kim Kardashian.

Likewise.

"Jimmy Carter was the worst President ever (until Bark Obama)"

 

"Trump's proposal is what everyone wants, and Jimmy Carter did it so it must be alright (although not the same)"

 

Or "ending diplomatic relations with Iran was wrong."

 

I'm imagining all of these die-hard Republicans marching down to the capitol to protest for the opening of a new embassy Iran.

Likewise.

 

Im glad you agree with me.....:thumb:I knew you would eventually come all the way over to the dark side.

I am not a Carter fan but I think he did the right thing at that point in time. His action was against citizens of a country basically at war with the US. We are not at war with Muslims. Big difference.

 

So we have been at war with radical jihadist what, Christians, Hindu's, Buddahists, for the past few decades?

No...you misunderstand.

No...you misunderstand.

Actually I understood you perfectly lol. :lol2:
