Absolutely nuts.
Well it's now, especially if they are told to evaluate green carder access case by case.
Weekly protests of millions of people won't be maintained. If that is your threshold of maintaining hope you're doing the cause a disservice.

Trump needs TO FUCKING GO. He's not in his right mind, and Congress needs to ACT.

I really hope this is fake.
If true... Hitler would be blushing at how this has been executed...

And just to make it clear, the executive order didn't say any of this. This is just TSA having a field day. They're LOVING this.

The groundwork was already there, but the previous administrations - as bad as some of them were - had some fucking moral backbone. I guess 70~ years is the amount of time it takes for people to forget about the flaws of totalitarianism, and we still have Japanese alive that were interned and Holocaust survivors, let alone veterans. But I guess the flaw in thinking that matters is that people would actually agree that was bad.
i need to see verification on this, please don't be true.

As far as I understand it, yes. The US cosntitution does not apply to foreign citizens at the US border.

There was a democrat on CNN FUMING. Telling the american people their elections have consequences, and Trump is doing what he said he'd do.

Time to nuke my GAF account.
Yeah, our news (in the Netherlands) reported that KLM had to deny several passengers with a valid visum a flight to the US. Fucking shameful.

Fucking hell, this is an attack on freedom of speech. He thinks he can be a fascist and tyrant, monster!
"He's such a great man, ordering to arrest and deport me. I love him so much."
The conditions that led to his rise to power and his ability to maintain it were specific and nothing like what we have now in their nature or scope. It's not a historically useful comparison.

Your anger isn't detracting from his point, though.
One weekend march, no matter how big it is, isn't going to do jack shit. It's gonna have to be weekly, daily. It's gonna have to disrupt everyday life in America to make it a focal point.
You're right that it's only been a week in. But he's right that as of now, that march did absolutely nothing but look cute on TV.

One week in office and Trump has already escalated tensions with Mexico, China, and Iran.
Two of those are nuclear states.

This is absolutely false. Again, plenty of reports of plans and ideas being held back or changed. Judging every action that doesn't immediately result in resignation a failure is incredibly dangerous. It's instant gratification nonsense and it will kill momentum.

It's not literally physically impossible for them to start a war with the US - There's about ten US embassies they could hit with SCUD missiles which I imagine would do the trick.

That is a matter of media and technology. Do not confuse the lessons of the past.
I don't think states have a say.
This has to be some historic record on how fast the country went from 0 to Nazi Germany in a week though. We live in some weird times.

And it's not just his voters that need to be told this, but the people who sat on their asses or voted 3rd party out of "protest" only to play Monday Morning QB when the inevitable happened.
