Rasmussen: 57 Percent Support a Temporary Ban on Refugees From Terror-Exporting Countries
#330327
The thousands who jammed airports over the weekend to support immigrants and refugees hurt by his travel ban. [...] it’s unlikely any of this early backlash will mean much to the swing-state voters who sent Trump to the White House to deliver a message that the political system wasn’t working for them. Trump secured an upset victory in that state by winning over longtime Democratic voters in the steel and coal country of western Pennsylvania after he promised to bring back those jobs without ever offering a plan as to how he would do it. “How the economy is doing around September 2018 is going to be a lot more consequential than the optics of this first couple of weeks,” said Charles Franklin, director of the Marquette Law School Poll and professor of law and public policy at the Milwaukee school. If the manufacturing jobs he promised don’t materialize, or the improved — and less expensive — health insurance system he promised doesn’t help them, then Trump might face political blowback, they said. [...] Republican Party officials are using this moment to raise funds, portraying the wealthy businessman as under siege from the political left and the media. A fundraising email Monday from the Republican National Committee urged supporters to send money before the first Federal Election Commission deadline. The media, Hollywood elites, and Democrats have been distorting the president’s policies and deceiving the American people, the RNC email said. The battle between Trump and the media “in many ways is galvanizing” for the president and his supporters, said Lanhee Chen, a chief policy adviser on Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign and a health care official in George W. Bush’s administration. To GOP voters everywhere, including California, Trump gave the impression that he was moving quickly in his first week by signing a slew of executive orders — some powerful, others little more than political theater. “It’s amazing the difference between the pace of a politician and the pace of a nonpolitician,” said West Walker, chairman of Californians for Trump, a 30,000-member grassroots group that organized online in the early days of his candidacy.

Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Fla., accused critics of President Trump's immigration ban of hypocrisy, pointing out that few complained when former President Barack Obama ended the nation's asylum program for Cubans just days before leaving office. I am struck by the double standard and hypocrisy of those who are offended by this executive order, but who failed to challenge President Obama when he took similar action against Cuban refugees, especially since President Obama's action was meant to appease the Castro regime and not for national security reasons, Diaz-Balart said in a statement Monday. Diaz-Balart, a Cuban American, is a Republican who represents South Florida, which is home to many Cuban migrants. Obama on January 12 ended the nation's wet-foot, dry-foot policy which for the past two decades had allowed Cubans to remain legally in the United States if they were able to set foot on U.S. land. The Cuban government had been seeking an end to the policy and it followed Obama's decision to renew diplomatic and economic ties with the country, which is still controlled by a dictatorship.
