Summary
Trump Announces Ban On All Immigration, But Its A TRAP And Democrats Have Fallen Right Into it. Last night president Donald Trump announces he would sign an executive order banning all immigration into the US.
Almost immediately democrats and media pundits called this a distraction. Trump had done such a bad job lately he needed to distract the public with unrelated but crazy policy, right?
No
The Democrats have been running ads against trump calling him weak on China and ineffective. Biden's latest ad said Trump's travel ban didn't go far enough so Trump responds in perfect Trump fashion.
Total immigration ban.
This isn't a distraction, it is the opposite.
Trump wants the spotlight on him, he wants to be seen as taking drastic action, of going too far.
So later when they run ads claiming he failed he will say the Democrats attacked him for suspended travel, he is one upping the Democrats.
Republicans face a potential uphill battle in November in the House and Senate but one thing they have is unity, Democrats not so much.
I guess we can only wait and see.

| 0:00.0 | President Donald Trump has announced plans to suspend all immigration into the United States. |
| 0:05.4 | And almost immediately, Democrats have called him the xenophobic and chieftain of smirror. |
| 0:10.4 | They say this is a distraction. Donald Trump failed on the coronavirus and now he's trying |
| 0:15.3 | to distract all of us. Or some say that maybe it's because oil prices are collapsing. |
| 0:20.6 | The economy is in dire straits and Trump must distract us from what's really happening. |
| 0:24.8 | The classic Donald Trump move. And well, I'll admit, |
| 0:28.0 | it actually is a classic Donald Trump move to tweet something bombastic out to try and distract |
| 0:32.4 | us. There's another point that should be made here. Donald Trump might actually be just taking |
| 0:36.6 | advantage of the chaos. Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, Trump has been able to do a bunch |
| 0:41.5 | of things he's wanted to do. Maybe not necessarily always wanted to do, but certainly things he wants |
| 0:46.3 | to do and no one stood in his way. In fact, they argued he should use more executive authority. |
| 0:50.8 | But here's where it gets funny. Donald Trump suspended travel from China to the US. |
| 0:55.8 | I believe this was January 31st. And the Democrats and the media said, |
| 0:59.6 | Donald Trump goes too far with this travel ban. |
| 1:02.9 | Well, only a few days ago, we heard from Bill Marr and many other people over the past |
| 1:07.5 | several weeks saying, Donald Trump's travel ban doesn't go too far enough. |
| 1:11.6 | So sure enough, when Donald Trump then expands this to the logical conclusion, |
| 1:16.4 | a nobody coming in this country, they now call him a xenophobic. There's clearly nothing this guy |
| 1:21.6 | can do that they're going to agree with. Now, you can argue immigration and travel bands are very |
| 1:26.3 | different and that's fair. But if you're going to complain that people can still come into this |
| 1:30.9 | country because they have passports, which is what many of these Democrats were doing, well, |
| 1:34.8 | then don't be surprised when Trump says you want it, you got it. We're going to shut it all down. |
