Trump Implements Travel Ban On Unfriendly Countries

Obviously, travel bans are Bad when Trump implements them. They were fine when Biden implemented them on many countries over Wuhan Flu. And when Obama had travel bans and heavy visa restrictions on some nations, including a few that Trump has restricted again

Trump signs order banning citizens of 12 countries from entering the US

Donald Trump has signed a sweeping order banning travel from 12 countries and restricting travel from seven others, reviving and expanding the travel bans from his first term.

The nationals of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen will be “fully” restricted from entering the US, according to the proclamation. Meanwhile, the entry of nationals of Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela will be partially restricted.

The US president said that he “considered foreign policy, national security, and counterterrorism goals” in deciding the scope of the ban. Trump had cued up the ban in an executive order signed on 20 January, his first day back in the White House, instructing his administration to submit a list of candidates for a ban by 21 March.

Trump has cited a range of justifications for the bans, including national security and concerns that visitors from those countries are overstaying their visas.

But advocates and experts have said that blanket travel bans discriminate against groups of people based on ethnicity alone. They will likely result – as the travels bans did during Trump’s first term – in the separation of families. The bans on travel from Haiti, Cuba and Venezuela could be especially impactful in US communities with huge immigrant populations from those countries.

In other words, the leftards want to continue allowing hardcore Islamists and Jew haters into the U.S. They were quiet when Biden banned visitors for COVID, didn’t care. Biden was quick to label Trump’s protectionist measures for COVID travel blocks racist and xenophobic, yet, did it himself, and the NY Times, Washington Post, etc, were silent.

“This discriminatory policy, which limits legal immigration, not only flies in the face of what our country is supposed to stand for, it will be harmful to our economy and communities that rely on the contributions of people who come to America from this wide range of countries,” said Pramila Jayapal, a Democratic representative of Washington.

Well, of course the Islamist says that

Well, they have their talking point about separating families down. She’s upset that Somalis, who are Islamists and have a 3rd world mentality, are blocked even from visiting, especially since she is here to represent Somalia first.
