The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the last version of President Donald Trump’s travel ban against those coming from countries deemed security risks and which do not have adequate vetting processes. Those who fought against it claimed it was a “Muslim ban,” even though not all of the countries listed are Islamic. Further, the ban is meant to be temporary until the U.S. can sort out and establish proper procedures for assessing security risks.
Here are five reasons why the court ruled in favor of the ban:
- It is for “legitimate purposes”
- It is not anti-Muslim
- It is within the scope of the president’s authority
- It is different than the detainment of Japanese-Americans during World War II
- It was not a reflection of the President’s controversial tweets or campaign rhetoric
