Quote:President Trump has that bans citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries in the Middle East from entering the United States for 90 days, according to the White House. His proposed list doesn’t include Muslim-majority countries where his Trump Organization has done business or pursued potential deals. Properties include golf courses in the United Arab Emirates and two luxury towers operating in Turkey.
It also has nothing to do with where actual terrorists come from, or Afghanistan would be on there for sure. And Afghan sends up far more refugees, but isn't included? Why?

Quote:Between 2013 and 2015, the last years reported by the State Department, the total number of Afghan refugees admitted to the US actually outpaced the number of Syrian refugees admitted: 2,324 vs. 1,823. The number of Afghan refugees resettled in US cities — namely, New York, Houston and Sacramento — jumped 21 percent in 2015, after increasing 14 percent in 2014. Afghans reported as admitted in the first three months of 2016 had already exceeded State’s projection for the entire year.
Can you say "conflict of interest", kids?
(I'm actually all for letting more refugees in, so I'm not saying he should ban those from Afghan or Pakistan also, I'm saying he's already writing laws that benefit him personally a the cost of innocent lives)
