LOL I think you can make a rational argument that it's impossible to really vet anyone in a refugee camp unless you question someone who knew the person's politics BEFORE going into the camp. The Admin has the executive duty to establish regs as to how immigration comes about. So when Kaz talks about his imaginary "plenary" powers, that's close.He can't use"Muslims" but he can have vetters that make it much easier of Christians without saying so. Wink, nod.oh yeah. I'd think the potus war powers would ok a temp ban of some kind. But, it will have to afford people the means to challenge a ban before an impartial panel. That is, he can ban, but if challenged by an individ who has legal status, we have to have an individual reason. That's basic due process. The potus cannot arbitrarily deny DP to person under US laws.Well I bet we can find something between "can fog a mirror" to "ban all muslims from 7 countries; even those with visas and green cards".
Well, having a visa or having a "green card" doesn't mean you are a citizen...now does it? Visas and green cards can be revoked at the leisure of "da gubermint"......you love gubermint, don't ya??
But once you have legal status, and go back with the right to return here, the gummit cannot prevent you from doing so without first providing you due process to challenge the denial of reentry.
Apparently they can and they did...for at least three months anyway.
He probably can have a blanket muslim ban on countries without banning Christians from the same country as immigrants on a temporary basis.
Of course, I'm not aware of Iraqis in refugee camps.
But asking the Drump admin to have any actual logic or consistency is way too high a bar.
