Trump's Muslim ban excludes countries linked to his sprawling business empire

How will they spin this?


Trump’s most recent executive order effectively bans citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S. for at least 90 days — but some Muslim countries were spared from the order's blacklist, even though they have deep-seated ties to terrorism.

Conspicuously, Trump doesn't hold any business interests in any of the countries on the list, but holds major stakes in several of those excluded from it

Friday’s executive order, signed at the Pentagon, suspends the issuing of U.S. visas or travel permits to people from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

Not a single American was killed on U.S. soil by citizens from any of those countries between 1975 and 2015, according to statistics tallied by the conservative-leaning Cato Institute.

How wise of Trump to not do business with terrorist nations all along.

I wondered how Pakistan and Afghanistan stayed off the list, since of the terrorist attacks on American soil, a lot of the folks have had some tie to them.

Where were the terrorists that did 9-11 from? Saudi Arabia. Was Saudi Arabia banned? Does the orange clown have business ties in Saudi Arabia? Clear conflict of interest here. More of the psychotic clown's idiocy.

Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
