Didn't Trump try to prevent even greencard holders from returning if they were from overseas from the wrong religious area of the world, after promising a Muslim ban? And was then only stopped by courts? Or am I misremembering that?


Yes, he did, it affected greencard holders for a brief period because it was a poorly designed idea thought up by malicious and stupid people.


Thought so. From what OP said:

> Despite what the media portrays, he’s not pro American, pro white, pro nazi, whatever.

Going after a religious/ethnic minority legally holding United States greencard status... Even if he tried to hide it in regions and not a DNA or religious test, he did it immediately after campaigning on a Muslim ban in those words. Sounds quite in line with those terms except it is actually anti-American if we take a huge part of 'pro American' to mean valuing the First Amendment.
