The Negative Affects Of Trump's Travel Ban

Sorry, all Muslims aren't terrorists.

The Negative Affects Of Trump's Travel Ban
MccLatch

These past few weeks of American history have been both mentally exhausting and controversial for many American people. President Donald Trump's recent actions, mainly his supposed travel ban, has caused increased public protest and racial fear throughout the country. It started out as Donald Trump signing an executive order to ban travel from seven countries of Muslim majority and to reject any incoming refugees into the U.S. Although the order caused lots of turmoil and commotion at airports across the country, a federal judge in New York temporarily halted the implementation of this order and stopped the deportation of people at airports. Eventually, the ban was suspended by the federal court of appeals and lawsuits across the country are flying against Trump due to the temporary chaos he created and discrimination he has already begun to encourage.

Of course, the president had taken to twitter to express his disdain for the decision of the courts and wildly tweeting in anger like a bullying teenager. This is not exactly presidential behavior and this is just evidence to the fact that he is entirely political ignorant and in some ways, childish. His travel ban was purely based upon an evil Muslim stereotype that only ignorant, uneducated Americans believe that all Muslims are terrorists. If that were true, then all depressed white males would be school shooters. However, I believe that this travel ban is only the beginning of unbelievable and ignorant policies Trump will try to implement.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
