Trump mentions 40 Muslim-majority countries not affected by order. Keep in mind: Priebus mused multiple times today about expanding list.

Oh dear lord - Trump hotels asked Twitter for people to share their favourite travel stories... WTF is wrong with their SM team

TBF - that tweet is from 11th Oct 2011

So it's a bit old

By merely seeking an exemption for dual national Britons May and Johnson have essentially endorsed Trump. Not good enough.

MUM: Don't tweet about Trump, they'll probably put you on some kind of list.
ME: It's a very long list.
MUM: Well, yes.

Place marking again. Thanks for all the updates. It's still so so scary.

That link occupydemocrats.com/2017/01/29/trump-hotels-just-asked-twitter-share-travel-memory-responses-savage/

is 'false news' - as such. The original tweet was in 2011 but people have jumped on it 6 years later -

"As Donald Trump’s appalling anti-Muslim immigration executive order led to hundreds of refugees and green-card holders being arrested and detained at airports across the United States, his own hotel chain made the extremely poor decision to ask the internet to share a favorite travel memory."

Trump hotels asked Twitter for people to share their favourite travel stories.

Someone there has got a dark sense of humour. And will get fired soon. Or has resigned since.

We always knew Piers Morgan was as thick as the lump of 2x4 he resembles, that's why we keep sending him back to the States!

Lweji · 29/01/2017 22:45

Ups, just saw the post with the date! Some people really dig deep.

Roussette · 29/01/2017 22:45

Some of the posters at the marches against this ban are just great... have to share a few

"Let Them in. Kick him out.
Without immigrants, Trump would have no wives
If only Trump had hotels in Damascus, Baghdad, Tripoli & Khartoum (love this one!)

Anonymous are live on FB polling as to whether they should release Trump's tax records. Have they finally got them all?

After Trump threatened to cut off fed funds to sanctuary states and cities, CA fired back, now threatening to withhold tax payments to DC.

Just watched the BBC News Paper Review. They did lead and deal mainly with Trump's travel ban and state visit to Britain. However, the tone was quite light and chatty. If viewers had read or seen nothing else about either topic, such as on this thread, I personally think they would have thought it was just an inconvenience mainly to holiday makers and business travelers. Don't know if it came across that way to anybody else who saw it?
