What is your opinion of President Trump?

I heard yesterday (I think on the MSNBC Joy Reid Show) that, when foreigners now enter the U.S., one of the questions they are asked by Immigration and Customs is:
“What is your opinion of President Trump?”

Why does a visitor, tourist, student, etc have to answer that to gain entry into the U.S.?

We have plenty of ignorant people in our country...would seem hypocritical to discriminate against ignorant foreigners...

because then I don't have to give my opinion in case that is something they are judging on (obviously they are if they are asking) plus I also think it is a great slam on Trump to act like you don't know or care about who he is because he thinks the world revolves around him. He is trying his darnedest to make it that way anyhow.

Some Immigration and Custom people are openly mocking and making fun of Muslim women wearing burkas,
because they know they can get away with it.

Give some people a uniform and some power ...
