UPDATE on US travel ban. According to Homeland Security document it isnt all of Europe, it relates to those countries in the Schengen area. So looks like both the UK, Ireland and Cyprus excepted. And presumably the other non EU countries too.

Plus Ireland by what? A sideswipe?

Trump clarifies comments on Europe travel after initially saying restrictions applied to cargo, not just people.

Hoping to get the payroll tax cut approved by both Republicans and Democrats, and please remember, very important for all countries & businesses to know that trade will in no way be affected by the 30-day restriction on travel from Europe. The restriction stops people not goods.

But reality is hitting home to most Americans...this shit could kill me or someone I know. They could give a shit about a temporary 5% pay cut.
Im really think he has jumped the shark. Finally.
