‘Extreme Vetting’: Donald Trump’s Proposal on Homeland Security Harkens Back to Past Victories

‘Extreme Vetting’: Donald Trump’s Proposal on Homeland Security Harkens Back to Past Victories 

 1. Trump Shakes Up the Debate Over Keeping Americans Alive

Donald Trump is talking about homeland security in clear-cut language that Americans can easily understand—and so of course the left is furious. Today’s Democrats, and their handmaidens in the Main Stream Media, just hate it when Republicans emphasize getting tough on lawlessness and terror. Indeed, liberals shudder when they hear the words, “law and order.”

On Monday, Trump spoke in Youngstown, OH; as he put it, “Today we begin a conversation about how to Make America Safe Again.”
And then he added important context, reminding his audience that we have been down this road before—and won: “In the 20th Century, the United States defeated Fascism, Nazism, and Communism.”

So now, today, Trump continued, we must study our past success as we steady ourselves for another epic conflict—the war against Jihad:

Now, a different threat challenges our world: Radical Islamic Terrorism. This summer, there has been an ISIS attack launched outside the war zones of the Middle East every 84 hours.

And that war includes, most importantly, the war against Jihad here at home. So, facts in hand—the official speech text includes no less than 131 footnotes—Trump laid it on the line:

A Trump Administration will establish a clear principle that will govern all decisions pertaining to immigration: we should only admit into this country those who share our values and respect our people. In the Cold War, we had an ideological screening test.

And then the New Yorker uttered a phrase that was guaranteed to punch through: “I call it extreme vetting.” Explaining, he added,
Immigration offices will also have their powers restored. They’ve been taken away. Those who are guests in our country that are preaching hate will be asked to return home immediately, and if they don’t do it, we will return them home.

Turn troublemakers away? Send would-be terrorists home? What an astonishingly un-PC thought!

Needless to say, the pro-open borders left, feeling punched, swiftly punched back. The Washington Post’s Greg Sargent headlined his piece, “Donald Trump’s crazy ideas about immigration just got even crazier.”.........

Read the rest


Sadly we have to note that at one time the Dems actually tried to protect the US rather than tear it down. But that was a long time ago.

Trump has made some good speeches and made some very good proposals. Now to force the MSM to air them.
This vetting issue is one Trump will win.

Proposed in that speech which happens to be in violation of both US and international law.

If you would read you would know what it includes. Instead you would rather divert the subject, you racist pig.

Now I am diverting if I respond to a phrase in the title of the thread? I tend to think the accusation of diverting is an attempt to divert and avoid discussion. I guess did not post what Berton wanted me to post. Sorry about that.
