I think the Trump law is to exclude people from immigrating from particular countries.

Don’t know that Indonesia, or a lot of other countries need to be excluded.

That’s the precedent I see: target a given country.
Problem is Trump specified (and many here support) restrictions based on _religion_ on grounds that conquest is a core principle of the religion in question, that even “moderate” adherents internalize proselytizing-thru-conquest as axiomatic, so there’s a legit question about whether that poses a threat to this country via immigrants. I’ve not resolved this one personally yet, holding “freedom of religion” and “rule of Constitution” as core principles.
