President
The President who was imposing sanctions on Iran in an effort to free Americans being held hostage by their govt. Those sanction included the cancellations of visas and a moratorium on new ones but allowed exceptions for humanitarian and otherwise compelling situations

Which is not what TrumpZilla is calling. I guess he's tired of stomping all over the the GOP for fun and now wants to stomp on the Constitution for kicks.

Where in the Constitution does it say Muslims that aren't citizens can come to America..........actually, a 1952 law states they can't come here.
Liberal support for more terrorist is telling.

Remember when Kermit Roosevelt overthrew an Iranian Prime Minister?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kermit_Roosevelt,_Jr.#Role_in_Operation_Ajax
"Under Roosevelt's direction, the CIA and British intelligence funded and led in Operation Ajax, a campaign of black propaganda and bribery leading to a coup d'etat to overthrow Mossadegh, with the help of military forces loyal to the Shah.[12]
"The plot hinged on orders signed by the Shah to dismiss Mossadegh as prime minister and replace him with General Fazlollah Zahedi, a choice agreed on by the British and Americans.[citation needed] Despite the high-level coordination and planning, the coup faltered initially and the Shah fled Iran; after a brief exile in Italy, however, the Shah was brought back again, this time through a second coup which was successful.[citation needed]
"Again, as described by democracynow.com in its interview of Stephen Kinzer, the CIA ordered Roosevelt home, but Roosevelt believed 'I can still do this. I can try again,' and so he instead remained and organized a second coup, this one successful.[11][better source needed]
"A general—Zahedi[citation needed]—was installed as the new prime minister, because, "by midnight, on August the 19th of 1953, Mossadegh's house was in flames, and he had fled... to surrender himself a couple of days later."[11][better source needed]
