“We’re going to take the next 30 days to develop a new set of screening protocols to try and ensure that people entering our country, particularly on a permanent basis, truly love and support the United States of America,” he said. “There’ll be a 60-day period where countries will be asked to comply with the new directives. Countries that are in compliance will have regular, ordinary and routine migration with the United States.”

People who are permanent legal residents of the United States — a.k.a., green card holders — are already subjected to a meticulous vetting process to ensure that they have valid reasons for being in the country, that they have no criminal history, and that they pose no danger to national security.

Miller then went on to say that the administration’s overall goal is to make sure people who are intolerant of others’ differences shouldn’t be granted entry to the United States.

“It only makes sense that we engage in some kind of selections process that prioritizes the entry of people who, as the order stated, don’t hold bigotry, hatred or violence against any sexual orientation, against any race, or against any particular class of people,” he said

4. That's why they're reportedly asking US citizens

about whether they are Christians.

6. it is heartbreaking because some of those held out may be apostates

they may be be gay or atheist or questioning and some of the students especially may be trying to come here to escape the religious conservatism of their families, penalties for apostasy in their own countries, arranged marriage, who knows what, this is what casting such a wide net does, they are getting human 'by-catch' and I am sure they are really not eliminating any threat to the US with this action.

7. Does he not realize

That some people might be coming here to get away from bigotry in their home countries? Not that our country is a blissful haven of tolerance......yet. No signs that Trump plans to help with that either.

8. The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential

command
