Well put Frank!
The Muslim ban is in place now. It would have been in place sooner if the Administration had some experience in writing out executive orders. As for the rest of your post - folks are voting along party line, regardless of anything else. That is not governing, it is dysfunctional.
As for the "sky is falling", that is funny coming from folks who preach situational awareness in their own lives, yet will turn a blind eye to any political event that does not directly and immediately affect them. No the sky is not falling, right now, go back to the punch bowl and continue to drink the kool-aide.
Not all babies born in the USA to non-citizens are coming out of illegal aliens. Do an internet search of "birth tourism".
There are at least 30 countries on this planet with birthright citizenship. We are not the only country that allows this. Trump lies again.

...words words words about politics and voter base, no substance about the 14th Amendment...
The above article was for those who responded to the thread with comments about the 14th amendment, and who insist on focusing on that amendment, despite the fact that that particular amendment is not what this thread was about. You are welcome, Happy Halloween.
Amendment XIV
Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

United States Supreme Court cases
Jacob Ruppert v. Caffey, 251 U.S. 264 (1920)
The National Prohibition Act, known informally as the Volstead Act, was enacted to carry out the intent of the 18th Amendment (ratified January 1919), which established prohibition in the United States. The Anti-Saloon League's Wayne Wheeler conceived and drafted the bill, which was named for Andrew Volstead, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, who managed the legislation.
Congress passed the Blaine Act, a proposed constitutional amendment to repeal the Eighteenth Amendment to end prohibition, in February. On December 5, 1933, Utah became the 36th state to ratify the Twenty-first Amendment, which repealed the Eighteenth Amendment, voiding the Volstead Act, and restored control of alcohol to the states. The creation of the Federal Alcohol Administration in 1935 defined a modest role for the federal government with respect to alcohol and its taxation.[citation neede

If you read the links I posted, and do more research, you will find it out...it is NOT a constitutional right, it has been pushed for democrat votes only....
...That's a lie.
What "other side"? I live and vote here too, a citizen in good standing. Trump is a habitual liar. What he said in respect to 14th amendment is a lie. So why are you throwing empty brass and schoolyard taunts? Out of facts.....again?
