Why aren't the direct questions put to him? [View all]

He spouts nonsense. The press, his staff, editorials, Senators, well just about everyone goes into overdrive discussing & analyzing & washing it. The entire narrative ignores the fact it is complete nonsense. Why not a direct approach of saying...there is no logical sense in what you are saying.

For instance, the drivel about a delay would allow those wishing harm to rush in before the "temporary ban". There is nothing about that which makes sense. NOTHING. What? How would one become vetted and on a jet in 1 week (two years is expeditious). Or, are thousands of visa holding terrorists just procrastinating about going to the airport?

and as the nonsensical balloons. Ok, what actions did they want to take during the ban they can't take while current procedure is followed? What is the "review" or "get a handle on" that they want to do? Are they doing it? What plan was that, exactly? Please explain the end game.

Why pretend that there is something there that isn't. Not just on this point, but nearly everything out of Trump/Bannon/Flynn/Conway/++ mouth.

Plus, I Daddy explaining about how good girl Ivanka pushes him to do the right thing (while making a statement some consider wrong). Isn't that saying to all, that doing the right thing isn't instinctive for him. He has to be pushed. Not just guiding or debating....but PUSHING him. He must frequently be doing the wrong things...according to himself.

It's that emperor and clothes thing that comes to mind.

Just a pent-up rant...because I think tooo many just pussyfoot around when they should take it head-on.
