    I don’t know if you already saw my top level comment - https://hexbear.net/comment/6273034

    If somebody is asked at the US border what they think of Trump - I wonder what a safe answer is. Before today - I would have thought “I don’t know” was a perfectly safe answer. But a Canadian said that and they were put into database and they can’t return to the US for 5 years.

        “What do you think of President Trump?”

        “I think he’s strong and powerful and I respect him very, very much.” They’ve practiced this over and over. And they watched the top-rated “How to lie” vids. They are sure they nailed it.

        “Show me at least 10 pro-Trump memes on your phone. Now. Right now.

        “Well… I… Um… I have them at home on my PC so—”

        “Turn around and put your hands behind your back.”
