'I trust Donald Trump to keep us safe' - BBC News

The BBC's Olivia Lace-Evans has been talking to Republican-leaning Staten Island, New York City, to hear from people on the street what they think of President Trump's executive order. The order stops all refugee admissions and temporarily bans entry of nationals from seven Muslim-majority countries.

I am still not understanding, why some people like this terrible man.

[alvinsarong]

That is american responsibility and right to protect their nation against active radical Islamic threat.

[harpmaster]

We're for Trump, and we are definitely for carefully screening ANYONE who comes into our country. These are different times, therefore, different policies must be put in action.

Took you long enough BBC to show the other side of the coin finally but it wouldve been nice, and still would, if you actually reported all the facts!!!

Donald Trump.." I Am Hair To Serve You"

[MoonGirl]

These people do know that there already is an extreme vetting system in place, right?

[bartoszpraczko]

Just remember Vienna on 12 September 1683 Poland did it before will do it again !!!

[mariammohammed]

It's not only about Islam 24/7 find something better to do then spreading false things about my religion

[ПрофессорПреображенский-ьэ]

Donald Trump is not the one to confide in. 'To keep us safe' sounds particularly naive.

[yassineijassin]

People worship charlatans leaders instead of the one true God. Seeking help by a hatefull leader instead of God wil not benefit you. God love those who love others.

[hollowhollowify]

even though the UK is making a full petition to keep Trump from coming his next visit

[josephlandrut]

President Donald Trump was democratically elected in a referendum, which resulted in a small majority. This highlights the need to 60/40  majority votes, then it allows antisocial activity to be out numbered by the majority and a true democratic vote would be achieved. No doubt both candidates were surprised at the result and should have  been re-voted,  until the majority achieved 60%. Britain had the same situation relating to leaving the European community.  Britain and all Democratic countries should establish a 60/40 criterion when a national referendum is to take place.

You just stand behind anything that doesn't effect you. #selfishness is shamed upon by God.. remember those words family. Spoken to all of you.
