EXTREME VETTING CHANGES TO THE VETTING PROCESS PROPOSED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP

Donald Trumps speech on the threat of radical Islam included a section about immigration policy that has the usual suspects in a tizzy This section focused not on terrorism but rather on what Andy McCarthy calls the grand jihad the importation of Islamist ideology that rejects our constitutional order and open society

In his trademark manner Trump departed from the prepared text to Archie Bunker-ize the speech by calling this extreme vetting which is not the phraseology you should use once youve won the nomination and are trying to persuade the middle-of-the-road voter in Ohio and Florida But rather than calling for body-cavity searches as this label might suggest he was instead calling for ideologicalvalues screening with the commonsense goal that we should only admit into this country those who share our values and respect our people For more information on this subject visit our website
