Right before the Hart-Cellar Act of 1965, an Act which liberals like Robert and Teddy Kennedy said reassuringly would not change the makeup of the nation, the country was about 90% white. Your 74% white is way off Al, it is much closer to 50% (middle easterners and many Hispanics get classified white). In another generation, at this rate, it will be 30%, Which is probably all well and good with you (and many others, even so called Conservatives on this board) but I don't think it is so great.
So read the article Al before you spout your mouth off.

That's because most middle easteners and Hispanics ARE white.Don't confuse race and ethnicity.Hispanic is a made up term by the Census Bureau referring to people living in the USA who can trace their ancestry to the Spanish speaking countries of the Americas.Thus, people from Brazil are not Hispanics (Porteguese speaking nation) and ironically, neither are people from Spain.The Census Bureau uses the term "Non Hispanic White" to refer to what people traditionally think of as honkies, oops I mean whites .The last estimate of that number (2015) was about 62.4 %, with a projection of whites going under the 50 per cent happening around 2050.

What's the Cliff Notes version? It changes too often to bother spending any time figuring out the current plan.

I hate it when that happens.

Maybe the White House should publish a Daily Policy Form with current scratches and changes.

What about Muslims, are they a race? Many liberals called Trump a racist for banning people from certain Muslim countries. So Muslims must be a race, because liberals know all that stuff and conservatives are always screwed up about what is politically correct.

Trump is Trump. If you can do him some good, you're okay. No matter the skin color or religion. Just like most people with power. (Just don't f_ _ k with him.)
