Trump's Essentially Racist and Avaricious Ban on Some 39 Countries

White Europeans no longer emigrate to the US. They used to make up the bulk of emigrants to the US between the second half of the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries. But now life in Europe is so much better than in the US that "white" immigration has dried up. And that bothers Trump. He mostly wants immigrants from Norway and Sweden for some reason (like many dumb Americans loaded with sexist stereotypes, he probably likes their women).

Since the mid-1900s, immigration to the US from the developing world has gradually supplanted white European immigration. In addition, the proximity of the US with the vast reservoir of native indigenous populations of Central and South America has kept feeding an incessant "non-white" immigration. All of these factors are unnerving the white stock of Americans who see their relative numbers dwindle compared to non-white demographics.

These are the countries that are now under a ban of travel to the US: 

Afghanistan, Angola, Antigua, Barbuda, Burundi, Burkina Faso, Benin, Chad, Cuba, Dominica, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Gabon, Gambia, Haiti, Iran, Ivory Coast, Laos, Libya, Malawi, Mali, Mauritania, Myanmar, Nigeria, Niger, Palestine, Republic of Congo, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Syria, Sudan, South Sudan, Tanzania, Togo, Tonga, Turkmenistan, Venezuela, Yemen, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

He also appointed a part-time beauty salon bimbo to make decisions related to these bans. Mora Namdar, who herself is of Iranian immigration stock, has been appointed "assistant secretary for consular affairs", overseeing everything from passport issuance to visa approvals and revocations.

For the US, these are filthy, shithole countries, according to Donald Trump. No students are allowed into US universities, and no business or tourist visas will be issued for nationals of these countries. Some of the factors that might explain this diversity of banned countries, invliude:

- Religion: The vats majority are Muslim, but there are many Christian countries also.'

- Race or ethnicity: Banned countries have a preponderance of African or Arab ethnicity in their populations, which underscores Donald Trump's racism and wish to limit immigration from the so-called Third World: He and his racist Republicans are trying to maintain the "whiteness" of the US population which.  

- Wealth: A majority of these countries are poor. Trump has no respect for the poor. He doesn't see anything exploitable in these countries. But if there is (oil, minerals, etc.), he will use bullying and force to steal these countries' resources  (e.g. Venezuela). 

- Another litmus test for whether countries are banned or not is their relationship with the bastard child of the US, the Jewish colony in Palestine. The vast majority of countries around the world do not like Israel because of its colonial genesis and its savage treatment of the indigenous Palestinians. Only a handful of countries (mostly insignificant islands in the Pacific) side with the US at the UN on the Palestinians issue. These countries are de facto bullied by the US into being subservient to Israel - their relationship with the Zionist colony is more like a forced marriage, and this includes the Arab Gulf countries. Trump "likes" them because they have oil and have been bullied into a fake "normalization" of their relations with Israel, even if insincere and fake.

- Some of these countries have very tense relations with the US (e.g. Venezuela, Yemen, etc.). Venezuela has oil and Trump is already stealing its oil by acts of piracy against the country's oil tankers in international waters. He argues that Venezuela is violating sanctions against Iran and Russia, but so are China, India and others. But he doesn't dare ban trade with these countries because they have large and lucrative markets. 

 

- While some other countries who should logically be on this list are not. Example Lebanon (where the Iranian militia of Hezbollah has killed more Americans than any other terrorist organization), Somaliland (because of its recently discovered love relationship with Israel), Pakistan (ultra-religious Muslim and harbors terrorist Taliban groups).

 

Bottom line: The ban is mostly based on racism and lack of monetary-resource exploitation.

 

Naturally, diplomats and heads of state of the banned countries responded with condemnation. Antiguan Prime Minister Gaston Browne issued a statement saying that the Caribbean country's government was "deeply disappointed" given that the justification (the US accuses it and other countriess of granting citizenship to foreign investors, something the US itself does with Trump's golden visa program for millionaires) "does not reflect the present reality of our laws."

The West African nation of Niger has taken the most drastic step of permanently banning any granting of new visas to U.S. visas in a reciprocal measure until the situation changes. More of these countries will follow suit and ban American individuals and companies from traveling and doing business there. This is similar to Trump's haphazard tariffs that saw later retaliatory tariffs on American goods, many exemptions and exceptions, and a chaotic on-off implementation.

"Niger is completely and permanently prohibiting the issuance of visas to all U.S. citizens and indefinitely banning entry to its territory for nationals of the United States," a governmental representative told the Associated Press.

A similar move was made by the government of Chad when the first version of the travel ban was introduced. In response to being included, the central African nation reciprocated by saying it will ban all new visas for U.S. citizens while also stop any still being processed.

"I have instructed the government to act in accordance with the principles of reciprocity and to suspend the granting of visas to citizens of the United States of America," Chad's President Mahamat Idriss Deby declared on his social media accounts.
