    Donald Trump: “Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on” Supreme Court: “This is not a Muslim ban”

    Replying to @goldengateblond @scottjshapiro
    Pence: "You shouldn't ban Muslims." Supreme Court: "This isn't a Muslim Ban." : "OMG look at the contradiction!" 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
