MSNBC: Trump Signs Travel Ban from Muslim Countries Because He Wants to ‘Change the Subject’
‘Donald Trump decided to basically bring back one of the most controversial policies from his first term’
EXCERPT:
PSAKI: "Tonight, Donald Trump decided to basically bring back one of the most controversial policies from his first term from very early in his first term. Tonight, the president announced he’s banning travel from 12 countries: Afghanistan, Burma, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. He also partially restricted travel from seven more countries. And all of this is an echo of the travel ban he instituted in his first term, one that sparked understandable nationwide protests and a series of court challenges. This is also exactly the kind of provocative action we have come to expect from Trump when he wants to lash out and change the subject.”
