In a definitive campaign promise, Donald Trump defiantly prohibited travelers from seven predominantly Muslin countries from entering the United States.

During his Presidential Campaign; Trump gave tough talk saying he would ban all Muslims from entering the U.S. if he became President.  Now he is President and he has kept his promise.  He has banned citizens from seven countries, mainly Muslim countries.  But he has raised a lot of eyebrows because he didn’t ban people from countries that he has business ties!!

Here’s what Trump said in a statement over the weekend:  “To be clear, this is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting.”

Over the weekend, there were numerous demonstrations around the country to protest the President’s actions.  Members of Congress on both sides are talking against this ban; and lawyers around the country are saying that this ban is unconstitutional.
This Muslim ban has gotten a reaction from the Leaders of Iran.  Since Trump has banned the citizens from Iran, not Iran has in turn banned American’s from coming to Iran.
Also, over the weekend, The Taliban sent Donald Trump a stern message; here’s what it said:  “It’s Time for You to Get your Troops out of Afghanistan.”
