U.S. President Donald Trump's "Muslim ban" looks set to become a reality this week.
The ban will target citizens of at least seven Muslim majority countries and will block all refugees from entering the the U.S. for the time being, according to a leaked draft. Protests against the planned executive order have already arisen and analysts have been criticizing the move since Trump first suggested it on the campaign trail.
But let's be honest, it doesn't take a genius or an analyst to point out just how foolish and problematic this idea is. These memes highlight the absurdity perfectly.
1. A little bit of déjà vu
2. Well, Trump's ex-wife did say that the current president slept with a book of Hitler's speeches by his bed
3. Post-truth and post-logic
4. And a ban will only give extremists more ammunition
5. But Trump doesn't care about that
6. And he insists he isn't racist
7. His staff aren't racist either ... apparently
8. Islamophobia just doesn't make sense
9. And how far will he take this 'Muslim Ban'?
10. Or maybe we've all been hearing him wrong.
