This is NOT exaggerated news. These policies have enormous impact on the lives of real people, and we need to talk about each and every single one of them, as much as possible. There's nothing harder for people to do than admit they were fooled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump did not ban a film maker from attending the oscars, he banned a group of people (wrongfully) and it affected the film maker. The title is intended to get clicks. We should talk about the bad effects this having on people as much as we can, but not through clickbait headlines. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VOLANTIS 16,504 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 If we can't bring Asghar Farhadi to the Oscars, we must bring the Oscars to Asghar Farhadi. I'll lift you 3 inches off the ground and drag you to a meter and a half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miel 15,009 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 It's literally terrifying that people still don't see what is wrong with all of this.

Sister 9,907 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 This is how all of his new bans and changes will break down into examples and why how he is doing things, just will not work. He is going over everything with a sledgehammer and knows little to nothing of actually how to set limits and set guidelines, closer to how Obama ran the entire system. All of the biggest things have the tiny little things that are embedded and count also. This will happen to Trump throughout his Presidency. Let's see if he gets even the smallest amount of embarrassment early and will calm himself down with his pens. The future's uncertain and the end is always near.
