Can't find it in quick search, but saw map that showed all non banned countries from
the region have trump towers/resorts, all
Countries that were banned didn't.

Will have to see if that's actually true...
SA and Turkey should both be there if he was serious about it and not thinking of his business interests.
What a sham.

You certainly didn't miss it.



Trump has business ties with Saudi Arabia and the Yanks will never, ever sever diplomatic ties with the Saudis, ever.
Thanks. Then it is all BS, they are the bankers and one of the worst in regards to human rights and women. It is a disgrace.
Although I have noticed on our government website Australia considers it as a 'friend'.

Interesting how this ban is being sold as a way to try and stop terrorism in the US, however the countries that produced all but one of the people that carried out the largest terrorist attack in US history have not been banned...

Edit: Lebanon hasn't been mentioned at all

I agree with trade and engagement. My question was more around how much longer US can finance operating as the world police. I don't think the US is doing that well with money. The have distribution issues but most agree with that.
I'm not commenting on Trump in this instance, I'd have the same question with Clinton. His xenophobia is a show for mine, I don't really care, honestly I find it funny more than anything.
I'm of the opinion that it's the sale of arms that drives the global economy. Yeah... don't laugh..
America will always have yuge defence spending, even in peace, and have a necessity to make lots of A grade weapons, that need to be used or sold, or both. Even if they are not directly in the conflict, the commercial interests continue to drive the agenda, and its very hard for even a strong president with commendable ethics to sever the attachment.

I think America approaches this with a constitutional fortitude similar to the way every administration has kowtowed to the manufacturers, who corrupt them, to enshrine the second amendment and place it on an alter... that has for nearly two hundred years been founded on alternative facts. The whole context of the second amendment is insane in this age.

Destroy that, and its a new dawn.
Heavy shit.
Trump can destroy anything...

How does America pay to be the world's police?
They don't... we go dutch. Everyone chips in.

Where does Trump stand on Indonesia? Largest Islamic country. Very close to Australia. (Once designated as greatest threat)
Does he antagonize them? Can they visit the States?
How would it affect Australia?
Australians... Americans... same thing.
Point is, if America wants to achieve their goals they need to engage.
They need to assist Australia's security, because they need it. It's to their benefit. It's multi faceted. If done properly everyone prospers. The Australians and Indonesians know this.

Not laughing, I'm looking for the defence spend to fund my retirement as well.

Heading into the mind palace, back in 48 hours. Estonia. hmmmm
(BTW. the sleep deprivation program is coming along nicely. Feeling terrific with three hours every 24 hours, in six thirty minute blocks.)
LOL.

How many refugees are from Saudi Arabia trying to enter US.
how many terrorists does SA export and fund? that's the real question...Trump made it clear that he want's to do this in order to ensure no terrorists, would be or otherwise, enter the US. He's too scared to slap the ban on the Saudi's because they hold the trump card, oil.

All those GOP reps have completely rolled over to trump. I hope they are all wiped out in the next election and all of there future political plans are tarnished.

They'll let him do anything he wants as long as he lets them cut taxes and screw the poor!

This is what Trump and his fans fail to remember.

The benefits for America, at the expense of nearly everybody else, for being involved in every corner of the world are immense.

When America used to be isolationist, it was a shithole filled with uneducated religious morons and a very rich ruling class exploiting their natural resources. Not unlike Saudi Arabia is today.

Do they really want America to return to that?
