DAY 11: Trump lies about violating the rights of people in his Muslim ban and we debunk him

Donald Trump posted a series of tweets trying justify the violation of rights of people in his Muslim ban. He also lied by omitting the fact that many people were sent back to their countries without justification. He said:

Only 109 people out of 325,000 were detained and held for questioning. Big problems at airports were caused by Delta computer outage,.....

That is a lie. People weren't just "detained." Many, including people with green cards who were already living in the United States (including a doctor who takes care of patients in New York), were sent back to the countries where they came from even though there is a court order stopping the forced departures.

Then he said:

There is nothing nice about searching for terrorists before they can enter our country. This was a big part of my campaign. Study the world!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 30, 2017

That tweet was obviously aimed at his own supporters, which suggests even his supporterts don't agree with his Muslim ban. Now, the thing is not a single terrorist has entered the United States EVER from the countries in Trump's Muslim ban. EVER. And the countries from where terrorists HAVE entered, such as Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, are NOT in Trump's ban list.

So Trump's tweet is a big fat LIE.

Moving on. Trump then tweeted this:

If the ban were announced with a one week notice, the "bad" would rush into our country during that week. A lot of bad "dudes" out there!

But Glenn Greenwald responded to Trump's tweet debunking his lie:

Since you announced you intended to do this months ago, why wouldn't The Bads have "rushed" into ---- eh, forget it. https://t.co/9ZNwDOM2Xn

That's true. Trump announced his "extreme vetting" months ago. That means since November 9, 2016, the "bad dudes" had two months to get in. But guess what? Not a SINGLE one got in. Most of the terrorism in the United States has been done by Americans, usually White. But Republicans don't call it terrorism is it's done by Americans. They call it "a few bad apples." And when people ask for gun control to stop it, Republicans refuse.

So there you have it. Trump is trying pretend there are no problems because of his Muslim ban. But the problems include illegal detentions; illegal deportations; and a systematic violation of human rights by people who pose no threat at all to the United States.
