Donald Trump's New Policy: No More Muslim Tourists or Immigrants

Donald Trump's New Policy: No More Muslim Tourists or Immigrants

The man sure knows how to keep himself at the top of the news broadcasts. For him, life is about building his TV ratings.

My counter proposal: no more douchebags, and we deport our existing douchebags to some country that deserves them. We could get rid of Trump, Alec Baldwin, Kanye, Barry Bonds, Dane Cook, Chris Brown, Mel Gibson, Steven Seagal, The Situation, Shia Lebeouf, Gwyneth Paltrow, Ann Coulter and The Kardashians in one fell swoop. I'm thinking that Russia could be the international douchebag haven. Putin could use the company.

GOP candidates respond: Trump's plan is unhinged. Dick Cheney also condemns Trump's plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S..

None of Trump's other unhinged statements have hurt his poll numbers, so let's see what happens this time. (In all honesty, I'm guessing that many Americans agree with this policy, even if they will not say it aloud.)

For the record, I think this is the Pew study that Trump referred to. Tens of thousand of Muslims in many countries were surveyed, and some of the findings include: (1) a substantial minority of Muslims (including 74% in Egypt) feel that Sharia law should be applied to Muslims and non-Muslims; (2) about 90% of Muslims believe that homosexuality is morally wrong (there are ten countries where homosexuality can earn the death penalty); (3) about 8/10 in Egypt and Pakistan believe that the death penalty is appropriate for those who choose to leave Islam; (4) only 72% worldwide were willing to say that violence against civilians was never justified (81% among American Muslims).
