My big worry about Trump is his lack of vision. He's impulsive and clearly doesn't/can't think things through to a logical conclusion. I mean, sure. I would love to see American companies keep their manufacturing jobs in the U.S., their home territory. But what are the long term consequences of coercing (threatening?) these companies, rather than honoring free market principles (wait, I thought that's what conservatives liked???)? If we slap 35% tariffs on Mexican imports, what happens to prices of goods?? Deport the Mexican immigrants... what happens to prices of things (produce anyone?) generated by Mexican workers? Blast the heck out of ISIS... of course. Who wouldn't like to see them obliterated to smithereens. What are the downstream consequences of this? I think Obama was too weak on his Mideast policies... trying to walk on eggshells... but I'm worried about Trump's cavalier attitude too. Why can't we find a common sense middle ground with this stuff?
Just going to leave this here....

I think we all know the orders are basically meaningless. Remember when Obama closed Guantanamo?All these executive orders and no comments ? I thought we'd be at 20 pages by now
I'm all for vetting immigrants, but this Executive Order is mostly showmanship for his supporters who think Christian Good/Muslim Bad. As usual, no thought given to repercussions. Blatant Anti-Muslim discrimination could very likely lead to even more radicalization.

Over half the refugees we took in last year were from Syria or Somalia...that is a recipe for disaster. Something had to change. I applaud him for finally saying that we have to get a grip on what we are doing. Not doing anything because some may "radicalize"(since when do they need another reason?) is like the sanctuary cities lame excuse of not reporting criminals because then need them to tell them who other criminals are.I'm all for vetting immigrants, but this Executive Order is mostly showmanship for his supporters who think Christian Good/Muslim Bad.

He needs media scrutiny and needs to grow a pair and learn to suck up the criticism instead of going on Twitter rants like a teenaged girl. Undermining the press and redefining facts are obvious strategies of dictators. Scary that his supporters go along with this.Very good observation here

Oh please, you didn't care when Obama was doing even worse...he'll have to go a long way to match him. It's the anti-trump folks that need to grow a pair and stop being precious snowflakes that are so fragileHe needs media scrutiny and needs to grow a pair and learn to suck up the criticism instead of going on Twitter rants like a teenaged girl.

They don't need any new reason to not like us. They'll hate us even if we evacuated the middle east. It's all excuses. We have to do what we have to do and thank goodness we have a President that isn't scared to do politically incorrect things to increase our safety.Agree 100% David. Yes we need to use extreme caution to make sure no terrorists are sneaking into America under the guise of being refugees, but kneejerk, IMO blanket Executive Orders such as the one Trump signed yesterday only serve to inconveinence innocent Americans abroad, and make our enemies in the Middle East more determined to destroy us. I'm sure ISIS and other terrorists will use this as propaganda for recruiting new terrorists/ suicide bombers, etc.
Trump needs to realize this isn't the WWE where everything is scripted and pre-determined; his "playing to the crowd" in the real world can cause unexpected ramifications nobody expected; miscalculations and overreactions that can be catastrophic.
