Rand Paul just introduced an Amendment to the ObamaCare bill that required the same thing and Ted Cruz, Jeff Sessions, Richard Shelby, Mitch McConnell, Mark Kirk, Rand Paul and 4 other Republicans voted for it.
I support shutting down all immigration for at least 10 to 20 years, so I have no problem with starting with Muslim immigration.
The only reason this is a big deal today when it wasn't yesterday when the US Senate voted on just such a measure is because Donald Trump said it, which is why he said it, to get this issue front and center where it should have been yesterday when the US Senate voted on the Paul Amendment and it failed. It should have passed, but there was no significant media coverage of it and not enough Americans knew about it to lobby for it.
As for Jordanians and Egyptians who want to come here? So what? We have no room for them or anyone else. Our inns are full, our pot is boiling over, we don't have jobs for them without taking them away from Americans, we don't have any money for welfare which the vast majority sign up for when they get here, we can't afford them, we don't want them and we don't need them, not from Jordan, Egyp,r Mexico, India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Ireland, England, Australia, Canada or from anywhere else.
My opinion of the situation is that we need a 10 to 20 year Moratorium on All Immigration, so what he's calling for is 100% fine with me, it's just not enough. We need a long-term Moratorium on All Immigration not just Muslim Immigration, all of it, to give us time to sort out this despicable disaster, deport illegal aliens, get Americans back to work, get American wages back up to a sustainable level, reduce this outrageous poverty level and the incredible cost of supporting people who can't support themselves, balance our federal budget, and pay down this outrageous national debt.
We have far bigger problems in this country than worrying about the religious sensitivities and "dreams" of people in other countries.
