Topaz Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 Grapevine, just told me Trump just called Obama asking what the hell he was doing pulling the National Guard off duty on the Jan. 20th when there are going to be hundreds of protesters and told him either put them back on or Trump will go inside the W.H to get sworn it. Take this info. any way u want, I'm not saying it true or untrue but the feeling between the two is not love. Quote

Trump ordered all Obama appointees to resign, is that not really a natural extension of Trump's mandate? The Commander of the D.C. National Guard (we need to be specific, because there is no single National Guard) is an Obama appointee. This is not Obama's doing, it it Trump's. Quote
-TSS- Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 The inauguration-ceremony is the worst nightmare for the security services. Any other time the President is well protected and every possibility of a threat is eliminated but the inauguration-ceremony is in the middle of a busy city in open air and includes a long walk along its main street.

segnosaur Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 At least Trump is creating jobs! http://perezhilton.com/2017-01-14-donald-trump-inauguration-paid-seat-fillers-reports-twitter-job-creator/?from=post The Donald is resorting to shelling out money to seat-fillers to be sure there's a full house when he's sworn in next Friday!! See? He's a job creator. (Granted this is a celebrity gossip site; still, quite funny.) Quote

bush_cheney2004 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 Here's another opinion...only idiots would tell a U.S. border agent they are going to Washington D.C. to "protest" in a foreign country. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

So you agree that unless we read the linked article we would have no idea why they were supposedly turned away. You have a lazy way of posting. You post a link without offering a summary of the article and what you think about it. You have enough years on this forum by now to be able to post high quality comments but apparently you only care about playing the game and posting as little as you can get away with and watching that post counter.

And I'm sure some of the dolts going south to protest will say that at the border and get rejected.

The thread is about disruptions, I think posting a link to protestors is not only fair but a welcome addition to the thread.

I've told the U.S. border patrol much worse things. I've had problems with both the U.S. and the Canadian side. It really just depends on the offer you get. But the worst I've been treated was on the U.S. side one Christmas morning a while back. I was the only white guy pulled over. There was an officer loudly and abusively questioning two Asian men. He was asking them why they closed their restaurant down for the day. The two men didn't speak much English, if any. So, of course, they weren't understanding the officer. The officer then yelled at them, "How many pounds of rice do you cook in a day." I couldn't help myself. I got up and walked over to the counter and said, "I don't know how long you've been working here, but Canadians use the metric system." I was there for about 5 hours, and then left on parole. I had to meet with an immigration overlord to verify my citizenship. I'm a dual citizen, but they don't like that very much. I was questioned by Canadian immigration at the Montreal airport. They asked what my reason for coming to Canada was. I told him that "I was here for the poutine." That didn't go well either, but at least I didn't leave on parole. But all that said, are Canadians really coming down to the States to protest Trump? If so, thank you! Quote

They also cannot help themselves. But in just under two years from now, the Republican party will pay a price when the midterm elections come They will lose a tremendous amount of seats that very possibly will cause them to lose control of the Senate. Good times. Quote
