The ban, which Trump signed on Wednesday evening, will completely bar travel to the U.S. by citizens of the following countries: Afghanistan, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Chad, The Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.

Citizens from an additional list of countries will be barred from permanently immigrating to the U.S., along with applying for tourist or student visas. Those countries are Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela. Citizens from these seven countries will still be eligible for other temporary visas, such as the H-1B or other temporary work visas.

If the governments cannot or will not properly vet travelers using their passports, we shouldn't let them in.

It's only okay when dual citizens travel with their secondary passports, especially those in the U.S. government.

Governments and the media insist on calling these places countries but they haven't been countries in a long time, arguably never.

They're geographic places on a map, nothing more.

Calling them countries is promoting fiction.

“...reintroducing a controversial immigration policy that came to define the early days of his first term.”

Good. If your countries are so dangerous that there’s no legitimate reason any same person would travel to them, there’s no reason they should be coming here.

At this point Trump should start issuing thousands of executive orders each day. Just swamp the system of lawfare simply to gum up the works.

Kind of like a missile barrage with a lot of drones and decoys to overwhelm air defenses.

Should have happened a LONG time ago. Now, get any of those from those countries who are not contributing here or living on any type of welfare and deport them. Now.
