Nor am I, and I already posted a statement from Homeland Security that the ban does include green card holders.

The point is that _his team won_. Who _cares_ what it means for the country if he gets to gloat and dance around and act like this is somehow the final defeat of the other team’s fans?

Sorry. I didn’t read down that far in the article.

[She’s not bad.](http://openjurist.org/sites/default/files/judges/DonnellyAnn.jpg?1459383115)If she would immediately dye her hair blond and put on some makeup, she might get to keep her job. Maybe that makeup person who worked for Marla Maples could help her out.

(Kidding, of course! I salute her, even though I’m a civilian.)

As has already been pointed out, the order applies to green card holders, who are legal residents, you fucking syphilitic marmoset. Nearly every article on the situation mentions it, you illiterate asswipe. If you can’t be bothered to read one fucking thing about the case, then piss the fuck off. Your posts just demonstrate what pathetic pieces of shit Trump supporters are.

He carefully avoided those countries because he does personal business with them.

See, this is what comes of trusting unreliable sources like NPR. In point of fact, the actual order names only Syria, and then other countries that the State Department had previously listed as “countries of concern” as sources of terrorism.

Guess which adminstration created that list of six countries? Hint: it rhymes with Yo Mama…

Five will get you eight Trump tries to use another executive order to fire the judges who stopped his bs. As I have posted before, Trump knows nothing about the government, nothing about the constitution, and nothing about the office of President in particular.

By the way, last night, I saw the end of one episode of the new The Apprentice with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold governed better than Trump and he certainly did a far, far better job on The Apprentice than Trump.

And let’s not even mention the six month ban on Iraqi refugees, carried out by none other than Obama.

Not a peep from liberals then.

And then there’s Obama’s ban on Cuban refugees.

Not a peep from liberals there either.

They are all full of shit.

In response to an actual credible threat, in order to revamp procedures to actually protect us? As opposed to this fear mongering?

There was a guy whose fingerprints were on a bomb - can you tell me the credible threat that prompted this happy horseshit?

That’s because there’s no ban on Cuban refugees.

Who? The two in New York who were the focus of MSNBC and the ACLU Saturday?

Neither one of them had green cards, or were legal residents of the US.

I’ll repeat - who are the legal residents you’re referring to that are being denied entry?

Are you actually denying that green card holders aren’t part of the executive order after you’ve been given several cites? You really are hopeless.

**Monty,** regarding “Trump tries to use another executive order to fire the judges who stopped his bs.”

Someone please correct me if I am wrong but [Judge Ann M. Donelly](https://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/content/judge-ann-m-donnelly) is a United States District Court Judge for the Eastern District of New York. A federal judge can be impeached by the House of Representatives and removed from office if convicted by the Senate, but only if he or she commits an impeachable offense. [More here](http://www.answers.com/Q/Can_the_President_fire_a_federal_judge#slide=1). In short, all Trump can do is take a big bite out of his own Shit Sandwich. Amazing that his staff who wrote this executive order errored.

**Monty** didn’t say Trump will fire her, he was laying odds he would try.  
Trump knows less about the gov’t and what he can or can’t do than a 1st grader knows about building a nuclear reactor.
