Of all the things that Trump promised to do, what he actually did last night is the one that gives me the most pain. The fact that some people I know increased their support for this man because he wanted to block any Syrian refugees from entering the country and because he would ban Muslims is why people are referring to his supporters as Nazis.
Specifically, I don’t understand the opposition to Syrian refugees. If you support this I assume that you are ignorant of the extensive (18 month) vetting process that is already in place. Refugees that had already completed that vetting process and were waiting for planes, last night, were turned away.
I assume that you are cowards, who think that one of these refugees could be an impostor, here to harm us because we gave shelter to those that were fleeing a horrible situation.
Or maybe, you were one of the people that simply didn’t think this could happen. Perhaps you were a fan of Trump because he was a straight-shooter who doesn’t follow the rules, yet thought “the system” would keep him from accomplishing his most un-American plans.
I make a lot of assumptions about you. Tell me why I’m wrong, or tell me how you are objecting.
