Trump Wants to Bring Back ‘Muslim Ban’

May 5, 2023 · 11:15 am ET · Leave a Comment

“Donald Trump for months has been telling people close to him that he plans to bring back his infamous ‘Muslim ban’ if he’s reelected in 2024,” Rolling Stone reports.

“Banning Muslims from entering the United States is a longstanding obsession of Trump’s… But the former president appears to be unsatisfied with merely reinstating the ban as it existed during his presidency. More recently, Trump has privately discussed adding more countries, including Afghanistan, to the list of majority-Muslim countries whose citizens he’s seeking to ban from the United States.”
