An excellent analysis by a very smart guy (I know his father, an outstanding physicist).

Yonatan Zunger isn't an American and I don't give a shit if my Americaness makes him uncomfortable, I suggest he go back to Russia.

I don't seem to recall his bullshit analysis when Obama was Trolling the other half of America in worse ways than Trump.

Trump is just trying to restore America. Obama considers it his greatest failure that he didn't succeed 100% in destroying this country and the Middle Class resistance.

I've got nothing but my middle finger for the lot of you.

Ad hominem attack.

Anyway, for those willing to think, Zunger makes a few good observations that I haven't heard mentioned elsewhere. Among these are:

- immigration officers ignoring judge's orders (i.e. the executive branch ignoring the judicial branch)

- actions which intend to create protest fatigue

- the dept of state being critically (and intentionally?) understaffed at the moment

Its all fake news now.

One activist judge cannot stop the entire federal government from following existing laws.

You're laboring under the falsehood that the Judge stopped all parts of the executive order. He only demanded a review re: stopping the Visas and Green Cards issued prior to the announcement and still valid.

He only ordered a review, he didn't declare the whole order in violation of the law.

Who ever heard of an incoming President clearing the decks, or resignations by those who don't want to work for the current admin? Why, this is UNPRECEDENTED!

If you are a typical neoliberal Georgetown Educated Multiculturalist, you don't want to have to put "Trump Admin Associate Director of Entry Requirements" on your resume when you apply to be a CEO of some "Western Nations Must Take All Refugees" NGO Non-Profit.

Tee Hee! When the opposition is shooting themselves in the foot, don't stop them.

For every pink-haired vagina costume wearer and Pro-Morsi Muslim Brotherhood Member in a Hijab shown protesting at an airport on TV, five white suburbanites move to Trump.
