Trump warns of 'death & destruction' if U.S. not allowed to limit immigration

By POLITICO STAFF 02/04/17 08:24 AM EST

President Donald Trump on Saturday morning warned that “death & destruction” could result if the United States is not allowed to restrict immigration, a dark warning that comes hours after a judge issued a broad block against his travel ban.

“When a country is no longer able to say who can, and who cannot , come in & out, especially for reasons of safety &.security - big trouble!” Trump tweeted, followed by, “Interesting that certain Middle-Eastern countries agree with the ban. They know if certain people are allowed in it's death & destruction!”

Trump is likely referring to the comments from UAE’s foreign minister, Abdullah bin-Zayed al-Nayhan, who broke with many Muslim government officials in defending Trump’s travel ban this past week.

The president on Saturday also attacked the judge that issued a rebuke of his executive order.

But the perpetrators won't even be from one of the countries on his banned list. But that won't matter to him, republicans, his followers, or the media. They will push the meme, that they tried to banned the bad guys, but the liberal judges let them in.
