Because Trump said it was a Muslim thing, his original idea was to ban all Muslims from entering the US. So this was really the closest thing he could get passed, people are more worried about the precedent it may set for presidential power over immigration. Now that the president has this power what is to stop him from putting impossible travel requirements on Muslim countries, in order to fit them on the banned list.
Wasn't that a temporary thing until policies where in place? It also seems that it was clarified that it was Muslim terrorist countries.
