The real situation is desperately grasping at straws trying to manipulate the situation to try and talk shit.

If you want me to agree with you, you should highlight why I'm wrong instead of incessantly saying that I'm wrong.

Funny, you really shouldn't expect anything since I've claimed none of these things. I guess that's just the same ignorance and generalization we should expect from the right eh?

"Bill Clinton is a pedophile"
"Trickle down economics works :^) "
"The Iraq war was the proper decision"
"Climate Change is a hoax (propogated by the Chinese)"
"Why do they call it climate change instead of global warming now? Checkmate, liberals!"
"Barrack Hussein Obama is a muslim!"
"Obama is a Marxist!"
"Obama isn't even a born american! Lets see the birth certificate!"
"Nono, let's see the REAL birth certificate! Longform!!"
"Who cares about an article from a local Hawaiian newspaper, that's obviously faked"
"We all know he's actually Kenyan"
"Obama is the founder of ISIS"
"Obama is a part of the muslim brotherhood"
"Obama only beat Romney because of ACORN"
"Hillary did Benghazi!"
"Hillary is a communist in cahoots with Russia"
"Cruz' dad helped kill JFK"
"Bernie is a communist (we promise this time)"
And many more!

You must have a steel stomach to align yourself with the right, then.

To be fair, I can say the same of Trump supporters. Seems neither side has a monopoly on stupid.

Not at all, I personally wouldn't be opposed per se if we closed our borders to everyone after cutting deals on managing important travel amd trade.

Blocking travel to try to target Muslims is bigoted and stupid, though, seeing as it'd also be completely ineffective. They have recruited native citizens from all different countries in Europe (the ISIS beheader dude was a UK national), focusing solely on "oh god the arab looking muslims from Syria" is misleading and counter productive, as it propogates the "Middle east vs. The west" narrative ISIS LOVES.

I don't understand why you think a distaste for a religion automatically means a distaste for a race.

Because we all know Trump isn't talking about the moderate muslim converts Sven and Ingrid (who we wouldn't even be able to identify). I think it's obvious he's talking about arabs. Either way, bigotry is still bigotry, whether talking about religion or race.
