Introduction Trump announced, at a rally in Mount Pleasant, S.C. during his run for the Republican nomination, that he would call for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims" in the United States and compared his plan, favorably, with the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. He also claimed he would send Syrian refugees already accepted into the U.S. back to Syria if made President, saying “I 'm putting the people on notice that are coming here from Syria as part of this mass migration, that if I win, if I win, they 're going back" (Obeidallah, 2015). Trump has also made statements that he would consider requiring Muslim-Americans to register with a government database and order them to carry special identification that denotes their faith (Obeidallah, 2015). Whether Trump’s xenophobic rhetoric and propagandizing helped win him the election can and is being debated. What cannot be debated is a general lack of condemnation of these views from his supporters. The GOP may be distancing itself from such messages in an effort to save it’s brand, but the fact that the KKK is celebrating Trump’s victory as there own speaks volumes. Trump has successfully validated the views of white racists, homophobes, and xenophobes, giving them permission to speak loudly and act forcefully, even violently. He has also made clear that he conflates the acts of a few radical Islamic terrorists with the entire religion. It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, then, that the
Trump has put into his campaign. He has brought Islamophobia to a whole new level feeding off of our citizens fear of another terrorist attack on American soil. Trump stated that America needs “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.” He defended this statement by saying those who believe in Jihad pose a threat to our nation (Chavez, Paola). His comments about Muslims has stirred communities to fear their Islam practicing neighbors without a legitimate reason. Trump has caused much of society to belittle the African American race with his uneducated rhetoric. Trump has stated, “There’s no such thing as racism anymore. We’ve had a black president so it’s not a question anymore. Are they saying black lives should matter more than white lives or Asian lives? If black lives matter, then go back to Africa? We’ll see how much they matter.” However, we all know racism exists and always will, no matter how hard we try to rid it from our society. To attempt to gain the African American vote in a speech he says “You’re living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58% of your youth is unemployed -- what the hell do you have to lose?” Donald Trump obviously as no issue talking badly of minority races especially Mexicans. Trump himself has labeled Mexican immigrants as criminals, rapist, and killers. His uneducated statement set off those of
The First World War began with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, killed by a Serbian group. The assassination prompted Austria-Hungary to declare war against Serbia. Russia supported Serbia; Austria-Hungary had assistance from Germany; and France and Great Britain had allied with Russia. Then, the declaration of war began. France, Great Britain, and Germany fought on the Western Front while Russia battled Germans on the Eastern Front.
“Donald Trump is the only Republican candidate who seems to have any inclination to act strictly in America’s interest. More importantly, he is the only Republican candidate who is willing to even address the problem. Trump may not have been right to say that we need to stop letting more Muslims into the country or, at least, examine the issue, but he wasn’t crazy to suggest it either”.
Donald Trump has voiced his strong opposition to Mexicans being in the United States; he even went as far as proposing the idea of building a wall separating Mexico from the US. According to Forbes’ article written by Dolia Estevez, “he wants to deport 11.3 million undocumented workers, 6 million of which are Mexicans, and strip babies born to undocumented immigrants of their birthright citizenship.”
Donald Trump has suggested a “total and complete shutdown” of Muslims entering the U.S. While ISIS
“Why do I say this?” one may ask. Well, the issues of national security and terrorism have been very critical problems in our nation in the past years, and much of this terrorism can be attributed to ISIS, a radical Islamist terrorist group. Unfortunately, a bigoted, hypocritical, egregious republican nominee named Donald Trump decided to propose a ban on all Muslims that enter our country. Even more distressing, however, is the fact that Donald Trump has nearly 50% of the nation’s support in his racist ideals and has inspired heated racism against the Muslim people in our own country, a country that is supposed to uphold morally-sound constitutional rights of freedom for every religion.
Trump 's stance on refugee resettlement focuses primary on screening refugees who seek asylum in the US. He called for "a total and complete shutdown of
These beliefs range from finding and deporting illegal and maybe even legal immigrants to building a wall between the US and Mexican border as a resolution to the immigration issue. According to an article from CNN on the 27th of January 2017, President Trump has signed multiple documents declaring that over 134 million immigrants be unable to enter the United States. The ban applies to seven countries where Muslims are prominent and includes barring immigrants from entering the United States for up to ninety days, however since this may only seem temporary it may just be the beginning of an even longer ban of immigration or worse. Since it has only been a week since President Donald Trump has taken his seat as the President of the United States, he has already performed bold and controversial actions which may only be the tip of the iceberg. “It's unclear how many more countries will be added to the list, but the official said the administration will be "very aggressive" as it weighs how many more countries to add to the list.” (Diamond,
Donald Trump has ruined immigrants’ lives. Recently in 2017, Trump decided it would be best to take away DACA. Barack Obama, our former president, made DACA to provide safety to young undocumented immigrants from deportation. Since then immigrants have been able to work and live their life peacefully with no worry or concern about their citizenship, but now Trump has put fear back into their lives.
Donald Trump’s signature topic during his presidential campaign has been illegal immigration. He has generated headlines and controversial remarks during his plans for change. In 2015, when he announced he was running for president, Donald Trump claimed Mexico was sending all their rapist and violent criminals into the U.S. (Gabbatt, 2015). He also called for the deportation of an estimated eleven million illegal immigrants.
Donald Trump wants to send all illegal immigrants back to where they came from because he claims that all of them are dangerous but some of them are actually looking to start a new life.( "Candidate Dismisses Criticism of His Plan to Keep Muslims out of
In the past months while the presidential debate has been going on one of the bigger topics has been Trump talking about putting a wall up and deporting anyone of a foreigner race. On September 1 2016 a news article was released on the Washington Post called “More than 6 million immigrants could be deported under ¬latest Trump plan” by Jose A. DelReal. Jose covers a recent political issue about deportation made by Trump.
The reason I believe that the Author is qualified to speak on this issue is because he is a nation correspondent for an award winning playwright, and a former attorney and correspondent for the state department. Having these accomplishments under his belt makes writing this article worth his time. Currently, Donald Trump wants to give Muslims a form of identification and to put them into databases. Wajahat Ali agrees with Trump but takes it a little far by saying, “Do selifes
