if one disliked muslims, that would
make one a bigot, not a xenophobe. there are plenty of american muslims
GS, did trump ban all muslims? or just Muslims from countries which the obama administration said wasn’t doing a good job of keeping track of who is who?
indonesia has the worlds largest population of muslims. why didn’t trumps ban apply to indonesia? none of the countries with the largest number of muslims, were on the list of banned countries. why is that?
no, not stuck in what about ism. but it’s great fun to point out hypocrisy and watch you all squirm.

Because he was targeting Muslims who were fleeing violence and were seeking asylum. I'd still like proof you are an actuarial. Your opinions are so shallow and so one dimensional I don't see how you're capable of critical thinking of any kind.

Trump’s campaign promise was for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.”
Apparently he broke his promise by not banning non Arab countries.
Or maybe you can rationalize his actions as you usually do by saying that’s not what he really meant.
AYWS Good luck with that

so why did he limit the ban to countries that obama said had no idea of who the terrorists were? why not expand on that and ban them all?
critical thinking? you have an orgasm every time a democrat makes a statement.
show us your critical thinking. name a major issue on which you feel the democrats are on the wrong side.
you’re a real critical thinker on politics, spence. show us you can be critical of the left. tell us which issues you think they got wrong?
if there aren’t any, spare us your lectures on the virtues of critical thinking.
spence s a big big fan of critical
thinking! he doesn’t just reflexively conclude the liners is always right, no sir.
actuarial isn’t a noun. it’s an adjective. i’m an actuary. not an actuarial. we’ve discussed this.

i think the ban was stupid. but it was only applied to countries which the obama administration said had no ability to flag terrorists. it wasn’t a “muslim ban”, because the huge majority of the worlds muslims could still come here. the ban applied to 6-7 countries flagged by obama
as a security threat. flagged by obama.

Now you’re blaming it on Obama or are you saying that Trump lied when he said he would ban “all” Muslims from entering the USA or what?
Remember you might be excommunicated for those statements!

the fact is, obama flagged those countries as being high risk. trump acted in it. i’m not blaming obama, but the fact is he played a role. Trump didn’t come up with that list. Obama did. whether you like that fact or hate it, that’s what happened

the photo on nantucket, inside a store that says masks are required, is a beauty.

“you do know there are no
mask mandates in Mass”
I do know that there are mask mandates on Nantucket, which last time I checked, is part of Mass. The island implemented an indoor mask
mandate earlier in november. Applies to all businesses on the island.
“telling the truth isn’t conservatives strong suit.”
from a guy who in this post told one lie ( no mask mandates), and made one wild assumption ( what the blurred words said).
Tell us more, please, about the value of being truthful. Please!!
Please go ahead, and explain to us conservative dummies, how Biden isn’t doing anything wrong in that photo.
Because to a moron like
me, if the island has a mask
mandate and the store has a sign requiring masks, my simpleton mind concludes Biden isn’t following the rules. So please explain how your superior intellect and honesty would
lead you to conclude, that Biden in fact isn’t doing anything wrong? Share your brilliance with us. Explain how you’d conclude that Biden is t doing anything wrong in that photo, given the truths that you claim are so important?

Conservatives and Trump are xenophobic unless the country’s are European and white .. then their good ..
Hence Trump coining his CHINA VIRUS Nick name !
Let me guess you think Trump was just being Honest about where the Virus started .. not xenophobic as Biden suggest he was being , and yet

Wayne: there is no mask mandate in Mass, so Biden didn't do anything wrong
Jim: here is proof that theres a mask mandate on Nantucket, where Biden was maskless.

the Google definition of xenophobe:
"a person having a dislike or prejudice against people from other countries"
Again, to my simpleton way of thinking, marrying someone from another country, kind of implies you don't necessarily dislike people from other countries.
Trump is a lot of bad things. A lot of bad things. He's not a xenophobe. I'm sorry if there are one or two character flaws known to human existence, that Trump doesn't have. I'm sorry if you can't grasp that not every insult in the human existence applies to him.

Yes Jim your once again more outraged over the POTUS not wearing a mask then those who refuse to wear them , or when the former White House doctor claims Here comes the MEV - the Midterm Election Variant!”
Biden has the right not to wear his mask it’s called freedom. Isn’t that what conservatives want and he is full vaccinated !
But simpletons like yourself and Republicans willfully make fun of Biden for wearing his mask 99.9 of the time ! then you see him without it in a photo and the wheels fall off the bus.
Jim that’s called intellectually dishonest
G.O.P. Fights Covid Mandates, Then Blames Biden as Cases Rise
Republicans have fought mask requirements and vaccine mandates for months, but as coronavirus infections again rise, they are blaming the president for failing to end the health crisis.
See a trend your a sheep following your latest be outraged orders
I only wish you held Trump to the same standards you try to hold Biden
But that would require honesty and objectivity

i’m not even a little outraged that biden violated the rules. i could not care less. but it’s fun pointing out the glaring double standards of the left. the left never stops attacking those who don’t comply, and see no irony when the president refuses to comply.
it’s fun watching you twist yourself in knots to avoid staying the simple, harmless truth…we all fall short. if you’re not going to criticize biden for not complying, that’s fine. but doesn’t that mean you shouldn’t criticize anyone else for not complying?
A little consistency would be nice, that’s all.
it would also be nice if you could
just say you were wrong in the facts, and that biden broke the rules. instead, you went on a deranged rant about me.
you’re a tad defensive, because you’re a tad insecure.
almost everything you’ve said on this, is wrong.
“Gop fights covid mandates.”
that’s not the point. the point is that democrats advocate for mandates. would be nice if they led by example. and would
also be nice if they stopped
demonizing those who fall short, and maybe admit that we all fall short sometimes.
i’m sorry, this isn’t about the gop or trump. your side takes one in the chin here. it’s not the end of the world.

" But simpletons like yourself"
this statement is as ironic as biden constantly chastising the population to wear masks in public places and around others and threatening mask mandates and then being photographed next to a "masks required" sign with no mask on among many others with masks...like biden, wayne probably doesn't even realize how ridiculous and clueless he looks/sounds...which is very troubling
