By now, most people know that President Trump ordered a 90-day travel ban to the U.S. for citizens of Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen and Somalia. The reason for doing this was because of the strong ties to radical Islamic terrorism in these countries.
Do you support this travel ban or are you against it? Why or why not?
Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen, and Somalia have current instability and very active terrorist cells - but Iran seems to be thrown in more as a political statement about the whole nuclear deal.

It's a temporary ban until better vetting methods are put into place.
I would like to see Saudi Arabia and Pakistan included in the ban as well, but the political and economic reality is that the US will need Pakistan's help when it effects regime change in Iran and the Central Asia States, and the US needs Saudi Arabia to sell its oil in US Dollars on the global market to keep your economy intact.
the plan be be correct in thought- the execution was a flat out ckluster f WHERE IS GEN KELLY??? he was not even asked about this -- why appoint him-? why appoint anyone?? OH well BANNON-- just jumped ranks over other security heads at the WH-- wonderful!

Yes, I do.
Why was there not this much fuss (to put it mildly), when obama placed restrictions on these very same nations' citizen's US travel back in December, 2015?
President Trump is working off that very same list created and executed by the boy king but no one howled, protested or burned our flag then.
Of course being critical of anything boy-king did is RACIST! So most mouths were kept firmly shut.
.
In all fairness, I think people freak out because Trump is not a political correct guy. SOME would always think of him as a racists.
"“I’m going to have our subcommittee and maybe committee in Homeland Security look into whether or not we could reinstitute this NSEERS [National Security Entry Exit Registration System] program—it was entry-exit program that was heightened scrutiny for 25 predominantly Muslim countries that have significant jihadist movements and anti-American sentiment in their country,” Paul said. “We need increased scrutiny on those countries before those people come to our country to visit or permanently. We have to have heightened scrutiny.”
Guess who said the above? Rand Paul! Rand Paul is somebody I can respect.

The ban applies to countries Obama identified as security risks in the first place . It is also similar to the Iraqi visa ban in 2013.
