More Americans Approve of Every Single Trump Executive Order...travel ban receives highest approval

[The VOR]

All 6 of them, huh? LOL.

And not one of them from any of the 7 countries on herr drumph's Muslim ban.

Oh way more than six which is the number I would guess agree with your sorry ass.

Oh and the perpetrators of 9-11 weren't on douchebag's ban either. Didn't see any threads on the board where you were complaining about that.

7?

yep, 7. Can you guess why the seven? You gotta be asking that question right? you think you're intelligent right?

yep, right.

I stand corrected, you have no thought

You are simply too stupid to waste any more time on.

 

[Claudette]

Most people I know are 100% behind Trump on the ban.

All 6 of them, huh? LOL.

Every one of the perpetrators of 9-11 came into this country on a visa.

And not one of them from any of the 7 countries on herr drumph's Muslim ban.

what's that got to do with anything?

Why isn't Saudi Arabia a part of his Muslim ban, 15 of the 19 911 hijackers are from Saudi Arabia? Oh, that's right, herr dumph does business with them.

If it were up to me no Muslim's would be coming to the US at all.

Oh and douchebag must have done business with them as well because they weren't on the list. The same list Trump is using.

 

[Jarhead]

Why isn't Saudi Arabia a part of his Muslim ban, 15 of the 19 911 hijackers are from Saudi Arabia?

Because President Obama' Administration did not label Saudi Arabia an Area of Concern for visas...like he did the seven countries Trump referenced in his Executive Order.

So, then trump's EO is based on President Obama's concerns regarding which countries should be countries of concern when it comes to allowing visas, is that what you are stating?

No. What he is saying is exactly what the WH said in the EO...which I have no doubt you did not read.

 

[Missourian]

So, then trump's EO is based on President Obama's concerns regarding which countries should be countries of concern when it comes to allowing visas, is that what you are stating?

Correct...not only based on...if you read President Trump's EO, there is no list of countries. The EO directs enforcement via a law signed and implemented by President Obama. That law specifies Iran, Iraq, Sudan and Syria specifically, and then directs the DHS to issue a report designating all other "Areas of Concern". Here is the press release issued when the report was released. This is the origin of the seven countries, in it's entirety...direct from Obama's Department of Homeland Security 18 FEB 2016:

DHS Announces Further Travel Restrictions for the Visa Waiver Program

Release Date:
February 18, 2016

For Immediate Release
DHS Press Office
Contact: 202-282-8010

WASHINGTON—The Department of Homeland Security today announced that it is continuing its implementation of the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015 with the addition of Libya, Somalia, and Yemen as three countries of concern, limiting Visa Waiver Program travel for certain individuals who have traveled to these countries.

Pursuant to the Act, the Secretary of Homeland Security had sixty days to determine whether additional countries or areas of concern should be subject to the travel or dual nationality restrictions under the Act. After careful consideration, and in consultation with the Director of National Intelligence and the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Homeland Security has determined that Libya, Somalia, and Yemen be included as countries of concern, specifically for individuals who have traveled to these countries since March 1, 2011. At this time, the restriction on Visa Waiver Program travel will not apply to dual nationals of these three countries. DHS continues to consult with the Department of State and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to develop further criteria to determine whether other countries would be added to this list.

Last month, the United States began implementing changes under the Act. The three additional countries designated today join Iran, Iraq, Sudan and Syria as countries subject to restrictions for Visa Waiver Program travel for certain individuals. Under the new law, the Secretary of Homeland Security may waive these restrictions if he determines that such a waiver is in the law enforcement or national security interests of the United States. Such waivers will be granted only on a case-by-case basis. As a general matter, categories of travelers who may be eligible for a waiver include individuals who traveled to these countries on behalf of international organizations, regional organizations, and sub-national governments on official duty; on behalf of a humanitarian NGO on official duty; or as a journalist for reporting purposes.

The addition of these three countries is indicative of the Department’s continued focus on the threat of foreign fighters. DHS continues to review the security of the Visa Waiver Program, the threat environment, and potential vulnerabilities. This is the latest step in a series of actions over the past 15 months to strengthen the security of the Visa Waiver Program and ensure the Program’s requirements are commensurate with the growing threat from foreign terrorist fighters, many of whom are nationals of Visa Waiver Program countries.

[Maryland Patriot]

The poll is rigged.

It's Politico...if it's rigged, it's rigged against President Trump.

I want to see how the questions are framed. I demand to see the spread. How many Republicans and how many Democrats are polled? Was this a telephone or an online poll?
I don't believe a word of it.
Remember, all these polls said Hillary Clinton was going to be our next president, too. Obviously, they can't be believed.

you demand?

Well now Vor knows what a dumbass he truly is. LOL

I'd say it is more the medias fault than VORs. The liberal media has a vest interest in not reporting that information. How can liberal media claim xenophobia and religious persecution if the countries in question were singled out as areas of concern by the Obama administration, Obama's DHS and John Kerry's State Department?

If the MSM refuses to report it, how can VOR be blamed for not knowing about it...

 

[Missourian]

Wouldnt it be easier if you scum bag traitorous capitalists just moved to a country already setup to do what you want to do?
Why DONT you?

Based on this poll, it's you that should be packing. I hear Iceland's nice this time of year.

 

[Missourian]

polls are awesome if they tell me what I want to hear!

Since Politico leans left, I figured these results would be acceptable to all.

 

[Maryland Patriot]

polls are awesome if they tell me what I want to hear!

Since Politico leans left, I figured these results would be acceptable to all.

and since politico leans left, imagine what the real numbers are.
liberals are having their asses handed to the now by their own side.

 

[tinydancer]

polls are awesome if they tell me what I want to hear!

Since Politico leans left, I figured these results would be acceptable to all.

Politico these days appears to be performing accidental acts of journalism these days as well.

Color me shocked. They did a great expose on how the Ukraine tried to influence the election for Hillary by lying and smearing Paul Manafort to force him to resign.

 

[keepitreal]

I really don't put much credence in polls either. To many variables.

The polls told us Hillary was the next POTUS and we can all see how wrong they were.

Me either!

No way Obama left with a 60% approval rating

Polling 1,500 people is hardly providing
an actual reflection of the overall

 

[imawhosure]

Most people I know are 100% behind Trump on the ban.

All 6 of them, huh? LOL.

Every one of the perpetrators of 9-11 came into this country on a visa.

And not one of them from any of the 7 countries on herr drumph's Muslim ban.

what's that got to do with anything?

Why isn't Saudi Arabia a part of his Muslim ban, 15 of the 19 911 hijackers are from Saudi Arabia? Oh, that's right, herr dumph does business with them.

Let me educate this incompetent booblet all----------->

Reason is very easy, if you pay attention.................... No matter what, if Trump would have put Saudi Arabia on the list, it would have been a religious backlash like nobody had ever seen before.

Why?

Because the most holy place in the Muslim religion that they constantly go visit is called............wait for it illiterate one........Mecca. If Saudi Arabia would have been on the list, no Muslims could have gone from this country to visit Mecca. Why? Because it is in SAUDI ARABIA! And, anybody visiting their most holy shrine, would have been FORCED to at least temporarily stay put! If you think the phony screams of Muslim ban are loud now, we could all have imagined, now couldn't we.

By the way, for people who like and know politics, your narratives are the best comedy line on here VOR........right after Fucca, or whatever his name is-)

 

[Faun]

Yep, you heard that right...every single Executive Order that President Trump has issued in his first two weeks as President enjoys higher approval ratings than disapproval.

And which has the HIGHEST approval? The travel ban...

President Donald Trump's executive order barring refugees and people from seven majority-Muslim countries from entering the US is one of his most popular so far, according to a new poll from Morning Consult and Politico.

The order has a 55% approval rating among voters polled, with 35% saying they "strongly approve." Thirty-eight percent of voters said they disapprove.

POLL: Travel ban is one of Trump's most popular executive orders
