Trump rages in ALL CAPS after appeals court rules against him. WELP

Quote:My comment was poorly worded. I meant why does the ban not protect us from countries that have harbored terrorists that actually attacked us? Where is Saudia Arabia, Egypt, Indonesia, Turkey, or the UAE?

The order suspends entry into the U.S. from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen for 90 days. But critics have argued that Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates were not included, even though a report from the Cato Institute showed that the three countries were the point of origin for people responsible for 94.1 percent of American deaths due to terrorist attacks in the U.S. Eighteen of the 19 people responsible for the 11 September 2001 attacks also hailed from those three countries.
 

Surely you can't be that clueless? Those countries, and only those countries were chosen because there was an existing law that specified those countries. To change the list of countries would require a new bill through congress, most likely with a filibuster in the Senate.


 

The seven countries chosen were designated as terrorist havens by Obama and his State Department. It was a strange coincidence that all seven are Muslim-majority countries. I mean, the odds against that must be astronomical, right?
