You might want to read your own source because...it reiterates what I posted.



Revoking and/or cancelling a passport doesn't remove the underlying citizenship. If you are an American whose passport is revoked, you don't stop being American.



Well, it is true. The only way to prevent a citizen from entering the US would be to revoke their citizenship.

For naturalized citizens, there is a required court process and you must be found guilty of one of a handful of very specific offenses.

For natural born citizens, the USSC already weighed in on that:
https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=2521246303796542623

You can renounce your citizenship easily, but if you are natural born, the US govt can't just take it away.

Regardless, there is nothing Trump could do in that regard. Changing things would require Constitutional amendments.

And thats where concentration camps come in: "Cant kicked them out of the country? lets round them up together on the same place."

The problem for Trump is that he and is team are operating as if they have some kind of overwhelming mandate coming out of the election, rather than understanding that they scraped by and lost the popular vote, thus are dealing with an incredibly divided country and, in large part, hates his guts. He and the people surrounding him are delusional if they think they can push their bullshit this early and this often and not get tremendous blowback.

 

[takoyaki]

People that need to rot and deserve what is happening:
1. Trump voters
2. People that didn't vote or abstained from voting for the presidency.
3. Bernie supporters who didn't swallow their pride and switched their vote to Hillary after he lost the Primary
4. Jill Stein voters

ftfy. This is not the time for in-fighting, there's plenty of blame to go around. This fucking clown never should have been able to win the election.

But there's bigger problems right now.

But, it's working. It's up to the GOP to take him out, and they are putting party over country.

it's been a week, it's way too soon to say it's working, especially with how unpopular these actions are proving to be. Let him do this shit. He's only going to make himself more and more toxic to the moderate GOP that feel compelled to align themselves with him.

This is what Dubya's team did as well, but they got bailed out by 9/11.

Yep. It's spiraling out of control. I don't know what the fuck they are thinking but a large part of this country will not stand for this.

They've been getting away with it. People are stuck at airports and cannot go home, None of them seems to care that there are children involved.

So two Canadian Ministers are banned from travel to the US? Did I read that right. Because they are dual citizens?

Those with diplomatic passports are exempt. So far.

The problem is his party controls Congress. So he may not have a true "mandate" in his election, but he certainly has the support throughout the rest of the government.

Their diplomatic passports will permit them entry.

Those people have constituents to answer to though. Again, I'm not saying it's going to be an overnight flip. But Trump and his team seem to be overplaying their hand badly.

I guess they're banking on the midterms not really being able to flip things. And I think numerically there might actually be support for that idea. Maybe add in some more election shenanigans to make it harder to get rid of them for good measure.

 

[rokkerkory]

People are rising up. Great job my fellow NYers

 

[BFIB]

I hate to say it, and I hope I don't get banned, but I just have a bad feeling ISIS is going to mobilize something because this ban falls right into their mandate.

They won today.

 

[brandonh83]

I'm just sitting here stunned that we went from the last 8 years to this literally overnight last week. It is absolutely horrifying.

Of course but it'll take till at least midterms before anyone can really do anything about it and until the next election before he can be removed. That's partly why it's done so early, feelings fade and people forget. He'll most probably get hurt badly in the midterms but by next election this stuff will be the status quo and normalised.

I wouldn't bet on that.

Every isolationist, nationalist, racial, or religious hate group won. From Stormfront to ISIS, this is a victory for every person who seeks to divide us. This is a victory for fear and prejudice.
