“It was just a travel pause, not a Muslim ban!”
What You Say
Campaign promises targeted Muslim countries; the policy's design and messaging were religiously coded even when lawyers scrubbed the text. Courts and civil-rights groups documented discriminatory intent and impact.
The Stab
If it walks like a ban and campaigns like a ban, the euphemism is not subtle.
