Donald Trump spent a lot of time during the campaign talking about his big heart. He had the biggest heart and he was going to let it help him make some of those big decisions when he got to the White House. Now he’s there and his immigration ban is showing the true size of his heart, not unlike The Grinch Who Stole Christmas if you listen to Seth Meyers.
We’ve had plenty of looks at the true nature of Trump’s heart. There was when The Washington Post uncovered details about his charitable actions during his campaign. Then again, some might go with the Access Hollywood tape and assume his heart is too big. He sees beautiful and he just can’t help himself, after all.
With the executive order on immigration that hit Friday night, Trump’s heart was deep-sixed by the global backlash. Instead of being the big boss keeping everybody safe from the “bad dudes,” the president looked like someone who bit off more than they can chew. Making a decision without any real government research that leads to 5-year-olds and the elderly being detained at airports isn’t something that’s going to win you a lot of new fans. While his team has tried to spin it to the Moon, Trump’s ban is still not winning anybody over.
Meyers singles out Trump’s decision to add religion to the immigration ban. He points out that many Christian denounced the executive order and closes by showing a clip of Trump’s views on God. That wraps up about how you’d expect.
