Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Well to be accurate he should have said " the majority of the electorite that cast a vote"
As the majority of the electorate may well be Trump supporters, but they just didn't vote on the day. |

I think the main problem was that the Trump voters didn't really know what they were voting for whereas the Clinton voters did... :D

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
He is allowed in law and by the constitution to impose a ban in the first place, so what criteria would be acceptable? Anything other than a complete worldwide ban is going to have an inherent bias to one group or another.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
And to high light the double standards we have this.
Does Trump beheading cartoon go too far? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-38870587 I don't think it goes too far, it's a good cartoon but can you imagine the outrage if it was Muslim being depicted in this way? Let alone if it was a leader of one of the banned states being depicted in this way? They'd all be out burning the Stars and Stripes again. |

Huh. I always thought there were many courts and appeals before they got to the Supreme Court.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
I really can't stand Trump.
Been reading his tweets from the last few days and he really does behave like a stroppy teenager when things don't go his way. I also can't believe that as POTUS he is still allowed to send his own tweets without advice first, as some of the tweets are very dodgy. Sooner they get something they can impeach him on the better I say. |

ANY ban of whatever sort is inevitably going to impact one group more another. Either the 1952 law exists or it doesn't. Otherwise on what basis could there ever be for the 1952 law? The 1952 LAW DOES EXIST therefore he is allowed to impose a ban. Even the European Convention on Human Rights would allow a ban. That is supposedly held up a beacon of "Rights". It is classed as an administrative issue and NOT subject to the "right to a fair hearing". |

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
But the Executive Order has to conform to the laws of the land and the Constitution, and not over-ride those - this is the basis on which the Federal Judge over-ruled it, and why it must be considered in the Courts.
Even the President has to follow the Law and the Constitution. |

If anything it is those that are opposed to the EO that are acting illegally as they keep trying to discriminate by overturning the general rule with discriminatory exceptions to the rule. It is exceptions to a general rule that are discriminatory. The general rule by definition isn't, as it is applied generally. |

Well, the Vice-President of the USA disagrees with you...

If people go around saying that " .. his supporters are the majority of the electorate" then they are wrong. This is such a basic point, I am surprised it needs any debate. If you go around saying that Trump has a popular mandate then this gives a very misleading impression of his support in the country. |
Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

The argument being made is that Muslims have been singled out implicitly, not explicitly. Thus the order can be seen as a violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution; "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion". As evidence of discriminatory intent, Trump's challengers cite: * The exemption that the immigration order provides for religious minorities. * Comments made by him and his colleagues whilst campaigning. They additionally argue that the action violates the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment guarantees of "due process of the law" by denying entry to individuals with valid visas. |

So it doesn't matter what was said in the campaign or what people perceive implicitly. He has tried to apply his policy the best he can, within the the law, and still this ****, acknowledging the initial issues around green cards and stuff. |

And didn't the donald say he was going to prioritise Christian syrian refugees over muslim ones, that maybe to right some perverse previous imbalance but when in the previous pre president breath he's talking about a total and complete shutdown of the borders to muslims it's not going to be hard to see a bias ---------- Post added at 21:32 ---------- Previous post was at 21:31 ---------- Quote:

In the UK, even with its flawed parliamentary system, a new Government with a slim majority is always very aware of this and would (or should) refrain from declaring a strong mandate from the electorate for new, controversial policies. |

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Just to point out, IF, the whole country went for the popular vote. Clinton would have won comfortably. She had more that 300.00 votes than Trump did.
What we have here is that Trump, is NOT above the Law. He has to within the Constitution. He is now criticising the Judge - see he wants it HIS way. He is running a Country, not one of his Business. I bet if that Judge was an Employee of his empire. He would be sacked today. As he wants everything HIS way. |

The US judiciary have not yet decided that ban is lawful or not lawful. They have suspended the ban pending a full hearing which either today or next Monday, I'm not sure. The administration have been asked to present more evidence. After the hearing, they'll make a ruling and then we'll know. No doubt if it is still blocked it will carry on ascending up the legal ladder. Quote:

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Just noticed he has had another go at the judge, tweeting that if anything happens blame him and the court system?
Appreciate that there are members who have a different opinion on Trump so am interested in what posters would think if Theresa May tweeted stuff like this? |
Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Tweetings from Donald Trump's account or the POTUS accounts are in a way better as they are attributable and cannot be blamed on the messenger if they don't go down well. So I would prefer it if UK Prime Ministers tweeted instead of using off-the-record briefings. |
