Just when you thought Donald Trump, a.k.a. America's worst nightmare, is too busy dealing with his campaign that's spiraling down on him, here he comes attacking nine countries all in one go — including the Philippines.Agence France-Presse (as published on GMA News) reported that Republican Party presidential bet Donald Trump strengthened his fight against immigrants in his rally in Portland, Maine on Thursday (Aug 4).

"We are letting people come in from terrorist nations that shouldn't be allowed because you can't vet them," said Trump. "You have no idea who they are. This could be the great Trojan horse of all time... This is a practice that has to stop," he added, fanning the fire of Islamophobia one word at a time by saying that the refugees coming into the United States might be part of the Islamic extremist groups.Trump then said that immigrants from primarily Muslim countries are "arrested for conducting or threatening to carry out violent attacks, teaching bomb-making to recruits, and otherwise supporting terror groups."

He then named these countries as Afghanistan, Iraq, Morocco, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, Uzbekistan, Yemen and the Philippines, and piped up, "We're dealing with animals."Well, look who's suddenly an expert on foreign affairs and terrorism. We suggest getting your facts straight first, Mr. Trump. Do your assignment.

Fun fact: The main terrorist organization in the Philippines is the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, operating primarily on the southern island of Mindanao. That's right. MILF.

4. Well, cross another demographic off the list.

5. Trump is completely clueless about the Philippines. They are our best ally in Asia.

BTW, there is a peace treaty now with the MILF. Most of the terror activities now are being done by Abu Sayyaf, an offshoot of AlQueda/ISIL. They mostly do kidnappings for ransom money. Barbaric thugs.

12. He's also going to be shocked if he ever has to go to the hospital

where a lot of his caregivers at all levels will be Philippino/a.

6. Good golly

I knew Trump was mean-spirited, but the extent of his utter ignorance is surprising.



I would like to show him that iconic picture of MacArthur's return, and ask him WTF does he think is going on in that picture and why.

9. He will be banned by many countries if he ever steps foot in the white house

8. That racist fuckhead

I know a lot of Filipinos who are awesome people in every way, but who vote republican normally and primarily out of pro-life religious conviction.

This will cost him dearly. Filipino immigrants are vital in certain sectors of our economy (especially health care). And they love America deeply. An awful lot of them serve in our military too.

This fool is in-American. It's that simple.

11. There are so many Filipino caregivers/health workers

In Canada and the U.S. The majority of the ones who I have met are among the most compassionate and personable people I know.

Trump sees the evil in everything, except money and fame.

13. Isn't the Philippines president killing citizens?

It seems a little crazy over there right now.

[kestrel91316]

14. Well there goes the Filipino vote..................

[MFM008]

16. My counselor

For 5 yeas was from the Philippines.
She had more compassion than he ever will.

Let's face it. He hates people that are not orange white like him.

17. This clown makes friends everywhere he goes.

Call him Mr Charisma.


BWAHAHAHA

18. My brand new son-in-law is half Filipino.

A better man would be very hard to find.
His grandfather, who is my age, is all Filipino and a real hoot.
At the reception he asked me if I had any stash.
