“He will be your president and if you do not like that, you need to go to another country.”

A federal judge presiding over a naturalization ceremony in San Antonio, Texas, on Friday told new U.S. citizens if they didn’t like President-elect Donald Trump, they could leave the United States.

“I can assure you that whether you voted for him or you did not vote for him, if you are a citizen of the United States, he is your president,” Judge John Primomo said,according to KENS 5. “He will be your president and if you do not like that, you need to go to another country.”

From the start of his presidential campaign, Trump made attacking immigrants a central component of his candidacy. He called Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals and pledged to ban all Muslim immigrants from entering the U.S. On Friday, he announced he would nominate Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), a staunch anti-immigration hardliner, as his attorney general.

Primomo told KENS 5 that his comments were intended to be unifying and that he meant them to be respectful to the office of the president. He also criticized demonstrators who have been protesting Trump since he was elected on Nov. 8. Since the election, there has also been an uptick in attacks on minority groups in the United States, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.  

The most hopeful comments at the San Antonio ceremony came from the immigrants who were becoming citizens for the first time.

“The essence of Americans is that you have the right to vote and choose [who] to represent you,” Rafael Guerra, a new U.S. citizen who was born in Mexico, told the station.

Trump said on Sunday he would immediately deport 2 to 3 million people when he took office. Such a plan could require immigration raids.

And here we go.  A judge telling new citizens "accept Trump" or else.

Bet you he would have been one of those screaming that Obama is a Muslim African, and that the Tea Party was right to call him an "African Witch doctor".

Who on GNI would like to take that offer?

This demonstrates that many people who became naturalized citizens of the United States are doing it for convenience and not for the love of America. The judge speaks the truth for once that foreigners can understand when they raise their right hand to take the pledge of allegiance. It means not to be traitors.

“I can assure you that whether you voted for him or you did not vote for him, if you are a citizen of the United States, he is your president,” Judge John Primomo said.

Nothing's wrong with this. Excellent point. Donald Trump is the elected President of the USA and he's the President of ALL of the United States - something that both Trump and Citizens must hold dear. Trump must respect citizens' right and don't go puzzy-grabbing.

 

“He will be your president and if you do not like that, you need to go to another country.”

This is what's troubling. It is very un-judge-like. Judges don't let their biases come into platy in the discharge of their duties. It is a sacrosanct American principle. He is being un-American here and we need to hold him accountable for mis-using his office.

Has this judge not heard of the First Amendment? He's like those officers who fire water cannons and set dogs on to civil rights protesters.

 

Watch how he will be dragged in front of some ethics committee by the ACLU or some other body. You will see a lot of this happening during the Trump Administration as these cats start to act ultra-vires. This is America - a land of laws; and he'll be reminded of it.

You are totally out of line stating the above.

Prince has a scientific way of knowing the statistic that "many people who became naturalized citizens of the United States are doing it for convenience and not for the love of America".

Maybe he can make lots of money on such insights.

Prince, as far as I understand, it is pledging loyalty to the. US, not to a president.  If they voted for a candidate other than groping Donald, then, that is their right and does not indicate that they are being traitors to the US. The judge was way out of line with the statement that if they did not like Trump as president, that they can leave

The White Arab control New Hampshire politics.  White people in New Hampshire don't even know that they are voting for muslims or Arabs. The white Arab is paying the Paki to carry out their war for Arab white Supremacy in the name of islam. The result is every South Asian regardless of religion is being targeted because they are being associated with muslim hate because of the way they look.

The Judge is way of base with this specific statement ...

1. One must always respect the Office of the president.

2. There is a profound difference between the Office of the president and the person who occupies the position.

3. One has her/his personal opinion/view of the specific individual.

4. Citizen judges administer the specific procedure to grant citizenship.

How come you have this celebrated love for america and only recently you said it was interfering with ISIS in expressing their religious preference? You are one of those who sit your ass in queens and open your mouth parasitically to feed on the benefaction of this state but has no investment in it. You do not know that allegiance means. Note It was I who was warning you that your opinions were terrible and backward and ignorant. The posts are here if you so care to be reminded on them
