President Trump signs Executive Order to begin US-Mexico Wall

US President starts process of a border wall between US and Mexico and says Mexico will "completely pay for it"

Absolutely fantastic. :usa:

Thus far in his Executive Orders he has also -



Ended funding for abortions overseas
Began process of rolling back Obamacare
Withdrawn US from signing the TPP
Ordered a freeze on federal government hiring
Approved the Dakota and Keystone oil pipelines


Being a businessman he actually seems to be capable of getting the job done and for the moment seems to be actually doing what he has promised. Like anyone in public office, keep an eye on him but he's really impressing me so far.

It's gonna be a bigly and beautiful wall!

Thoughts?

He is like Prime Minister Modi. He keeps to his promises and does well which scares his opponents.

Better and cheaper to build a wall around the White House while he's in it :)

Anyway...
There are ways around a wall such as tunnels and boats that people can use to enter the US. If you really want to solve illegal immigration issues you have to punish the people who use illegal labor and punish so severely that the risks of getting caught outweigh the benefits, then if illegal immigrants can't find job opportunities in the US they will either try to become citizens or return to their country of origin. Though that comes with its drawbacks as most people won't do the jobs that migrant farm workers do for minimum wage. Not to mention the animals that migrate between the borders.

Well that isn't making them pay for the wall that's charging people more for things that already exist and then buying a wall himself :P unless he literally sets up a separate fund for it that only gets to use money from Mexico, which is more ridiculous than his hair

Theresa May has really shot herself in the foot by failing to condemn the Muslim ban (among other things). British people holding dual nationality are also being affected by this ban e.g.

I still cannot believe this pig of a man is in power and causing so much destruction - when he visits the uk i'm sure there will be absolute scenes and inviting him for a state visit will definately damage support for theresa may/tories and even the queen. The crowds for his inaug were embarrassing so any public support for him here will be near to none! :D

This is going to be the worst ever presidency and I bet you 100% he will not even serve a full 4 year term if he carries on like this. People who voted for Trump will be ashamed when his time is up, hopefully sooner than later!

In fact, an analysis of terrorist attacks on US soil between 1975 and 2015, published by the Cato Institute, found that foreign nationals from the seven countries singled out by Trump’s executive order have killed zero Americans.

The Muslim ban is nothing but scare tactics trying to please people with xenophobia like yourself -:Undertaker:-;

I'm very hopeful for the future :) Voting stats have showed that younger gens are more liberal so give it a few years and I'm sure social justice will be restored!

I'm not even mad about Brexit and I'm sure a success can be made out of it eventually but both Brexit and Trump's wins were narrow so let's not act like extreme right wing politics is here to stay for years to come

Theresa may just looks weak by failing to condemn what Trump is doing and I'm sure if Brexit wasn't around the corner she wouldn't have rushed to hold hands with him so quickly. If she continues the way she is then I won't be voting for her at the next general election like I was intending!

You keep going on about women's rights in islamic countries but plz tell me how anything Trump is doing will help this?? What would YOU suggest? I'm sure if there was mass marches against this you would probably bash them as irrelevant like you did with the Womens March. Women's rights in islamic countries are terrible yes but there is only so much we can do as a western society to improve them.

and yes you're right! i am upset about trump and would feel even more upset if I were american - the division and hate the election has created (from both dems and repubs) is horrible to watch and I thought it was bad in the UK but nope

anyways it will be interesting to see what trump plans to do once he ends terrorism single handedly

also I think theresa may would be in more trouble rn if labour was actually functioning properly

His comments clearly suggested that he does/did do these actions. Unless he just happens to know what he can do, without ever having tested it (in which case he is just a liar, still hardly admirable). "I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. just Kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.".

That's exactly the attitude people like Jimmy Saville had. "I'm famous, I get away with it". And if they didn't give explicit consent? Yup, sexual assault.

Anyway, congratulations on doing your usual and completing avoiding my query. I'm not even remotely surprised, as you have a habit of refusing to debate when you're comments don't add up.

I would actually extend the ban to those countries aswell, for example I think it is high time we confronted the Wahabbist sect within Saudi Arabia once and for all. However, the clear difference between those countries and the others is that they're functioning states we can do business with and the others are failed or outright hostile states. Saudi Arabia isn't Yemen.

Courts of law you could apply to Sharia. Clothing you can maybe apply ever so loosely (hijab).

Islam is the overwhelming cultural force across those countries, many of which did not exist over one hundred years ago. To claim otherwise or allude to some unknown cultural force which you do not name shows you to be highly ignorant of history, the history of the region of the influence of Islam in how the Middle East is today from politics to society. Instead of acknowledging the influence of Islam and thus having to confront its ills that it has left on the region today, it's easier for you - being lazy about it - to paint me as a sort of bigot or 'despising' Islam because then you can use the good liberal card and I am then the bad guy.

If I tried to engage you on the three main events of modern Arab history and the rise of political Islam (the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, the Iranian Revolution and the Saudi Pact) you wouldn't be able to handle it. So instead it's just puerile baby argument like "saying u dunt despize islam means nuffin cos u do i no ha ha i win" so what's the point of even trying with it - you've basically said nothing I can say will change your delusion of what I think so whatever.

1) Not a liberal. Dunno why you carry on saying these things.
2) I didn't and don't deny that Islam has had a huge impact on the culture of many places, but that (as with most things you post in replies to me) really isn't the point. The point is that you state Islam as the problem time and time again, and in doing so it shows that you do despise it. Agaiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnn, saying that you don't doesn't change facts, and trying to make fun of the truth by writing it in a weird way is just ludicrous.
3) The real puerile baby argument is changing what other people have said over and over and over and over and over and over in every thread. You get top prize for that.

FJ has said everything I feel the need to say, to be honest. However, the issue is, your claims regarding women are not in anyway unique to Islamic countries, and that's why your argument is so flawed.

I knew perfectly well which rights you were going to mention (as you do the same as many people). The issue is if you were even the least bit educated in these areas, you would realise simply blaming Islam is so incredibly short-sighted, and completely the wrong way to achieve change.
