Excluding immigration from specific countries is the president’s call - as CnC ... Congress has nothing to say about it.

Sorry. Constitutionally, immigration policy is the exclusive province of the Congress.

The president is responsible for foreign policy -- as president, not as C-in-C -- which is distinct from immigration policy.

As CnC he holds the responsibility of protecting the nation - including closing the borders, as did GWB on 9/11/2001.

Sorry, but the President can stop immigration to all or just to some.
