I Love The Usa

It is thrilling to see thousands of Americans protesting against the new Administration's xenophobic ban on Syrian refugees and others. If I were American I would feel very proud right now to see so many people saying loud and clear that refugees are welcome. 🇺🇸

xenophobic? Trump's EO doesnt name any countries or religions. The 7 countries to which it applies were...selected by Obama.

@goliathtree: It doesn't "name" any countries but "applies" to them? 🤔
Obama identified those countries for concern, but did not shut the doors to them, admitting some 18,000 Syrian refugees.

@goliathtree & sassygirl15:

While Obama did halt the refugee program, it did not impact green card holders, or anyone with a visa. It also did not affect refugees who had already gone through the vetting process. Trump’s travel ban barred entry to the United States to those groups, causing a chaotic situation for travelers from the seven affected countries and leading to protests at airports across the country.
