Why would anyone not welcome a visiting US president?

// O'Bama //

Is that the Irish President?

[andy-hughes]

Jacdaw - All he has done is to impose a ban on people who might turn out to be terrorists. //

Have a look at this -

Jack....has he banned anyone from a country where he does business or has significant business holdings?

Big mistake by Theresa may thinking she was so special to be the first leader to visit trump, doubt any other leader will be waiting for an invitation.

Oh, I don't know. I bet Vlad is waiting with bated breath for his.

[Gromit]

Wahabbism, the very evil variant of Islam, which underpins, the Taleban, Al Qaeda, Islamic State/Daesh is an export of Saudi Arabia. Any list of countries of Islamic threat, which omits Saudi Arabia is completely worthless.

The fact that they are locking up people who helped the US in Iraq and Afghanistan, while Saudis who fund Islamic State are allowed to fly in and out of the US in their Private Jets, is a travesty.

This reveals the sheer hypocrisy of Trump's ban :

Are you having a laugh?

Putin, disgracefully, had a state visit in 2003.
But back then we were slow to see the enormity of certain people's crimes. I seem to recall we used to think Ceaucescu was some sort of heroic anti Soviet maverick

Have a feeling your info may be ignored, Dave.......doesn't fit.....x

Obama forcible made over 2.5 million people leave America, more than any other US president.
A six month ban on Iraqi refugees.



I will ask again ... where was your outrage?

Politics can be a dirty business.

Have a feeling your info may be ignored, Talbot (again).......doesn't fit.....x

[anneasquith]

Dave's links are excellent, but some may label them (fake news) G

[gness]

Or alternative facts, Anne......;-).....pretty sure they can be verified.....x

Who's ignored you, Talbot?

[Jackdaw33]

Would that God had given me the grace to be so smug, censorious and sanctimonious in the same measure that he has bestowed upon others here.

[gness]

Well that's added to the discussion!....Honestly!!!!.....:-)

It's not to do with being any of those things - it's just that anyone who makes observations which deserve challenging is going to get challenged.

If you have belief in your statements, you'll be delighted to back them up with some rigorous arguments - if not you can sit back and moan that people are looking down on you.

Your choice.
