Donald Trump’s Insane Immigration Ideas Would Ban Doctors From Coming to America

Why is it so hard for Hillary to win this election by a land-slide? All I keep hearing is Clinton is up by 2 points. She is going against the worst republican candidate ever.

Quote:

Everybody is worked up about “extreme vetting,” and that’s fine, there’s a lot to be worked up about in the idea of a loyalty oath for all immigrants. Law professor Jonathan Turley did a good job of running through the history and the debate the other day in The Washington Post, concluding, somewhat surprisingly, that Trump “may have the law on his side” here.

I understand why liberals especially have a Pavlovian response to the phrase loyalty oaths, but I was far more troubled by the passage in Trump’s speech that came right after he improvised the “extreme vetting” remark. It went like this:
As soon as I take office, I will ask the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security to identify a list of regions where adequate screening cannot take place. We will stop processing visas from those areas until such time as it is deemed safe to resume based on new circumstances or new procedures.

The size of current immigration flows are simply too large to perform adequate screening.
We admit about 100,000 permanent immigrants from the Middle East every year. Beyond that, we admit hundreds of thousands of temporary workers and visitors from the same regions. If we don’t control the numbers, we can’t perform adequate screening.
This isn’t the first time Trump has said this. Maybe, in the context of all the other nuttiness that surrounded it, I just noticed it more. But it’s absolutely ghastly.

Think about it. His administration will identify “regions” where “adequate screening cannot take place.” And he’ll keep people out from those regions. Not just people who can’t answer loyalty-oath questions properly. Everyone.

Previously Trump has made the same claim about countries “compromised” by terrorism. What countries would that include? Well, let’s see. Certainly it would include France, doesn’t it? It’d be awfully hard to make the case that France isn’t “compromised” by terrorism. And to invoke Trump’s more recent criterion, it also seems pretty hard to argue that France has adequate screening.

So a Trump administration would ban immigration from France? Germany is pretty compromised. Ditto the United Kingdom. Israel? Please! And I don’t mean just Hamas. There are right-wing settler terrorist groups too. There is no way for American law to distinguish between Jewish terrorists and Arab ones. No way.
