And I made up the quote of the mayor to illustrate that point.
I asked if the travel ban could, looking at it through the lense of what was happening, be reasonably considered to be bigoted.

You responded by insulting me. You can't just concede my point.

Paul, obviously, not every single person who voted for Hilary, thinks the travel restrictions were bigoted. But did any influential liberals, defend the ban, when other influential liberals claimed it was bigoted?

The best you can do, is tell me I'm wrong when I say "liberals don't like Trump", because it's not true in literally 100% of the cases. That's not nit-picking.

Maybe one day you can answer the question I ask...

It could look as bigoted to some. I believe it didn't include Americans returning and some health experts said that bc of that it wasn't as effective.

While I think he is xeno. I try not look at one incidence and claim bc of that one incidence someone is or isn't something.

So if you want to think his banning flights from China was good, good for you - other may not agree.

i admitted it could
look bigoted to some. Like Biden and Schumer.

is it reasonable, to assume
it was bigoted?

are you really this dense?

And are you really so dense that you fall to understand that you can be a xenophobe but marry a person from another country. The definition doesn't mean you hate every person from every foreign country. Your example of mentioning his wife is like my saying Hitler didnt hate the Jews because he had a friend who was Jewish.
