I understand why Trump's "Muslim ban" is a hot topic right now. We have a 24/7 media cycle that can only pay attention to one thing at a time, and it preferences outrage over substance. Trump was a divisive and polarizing figure before he was elected, and he has embraced that role making it easier for one segment of our population to hate him and anything he does or says, and another to idolize him for saying and doing what they have long wished to say and do.
