Where it bans citizens from Muslim-majority countries and includes a specific exception for religious minorities...in Muslim-majority countries.
This country has always held out asylum as an option for religiously persecuted refugees. This is nothing new. We have also done it for political refugees.
So, yes, Muslims are indeed affected here, and it is because they are Muslim. That is NOT the same thing as saying this order was written to TARGET Muslims. If we had a similar order against refugees from Greece, would that make us anti-Orthodox?
This is where the left loses the logic argument. Just because a group is more negatively impacted by a ruling or law, and that impact is due to their belonging to a suspect class, DOES NOT mean that this ruling or law was enacted to target them. Saying that it is is only more examples of trying to be cast as a victim.
Disproportionate outcome does not EQUATE to targeted implementation. If you think it does, you have bad logic skills.

And that's why it's illegal and will be struck down.
