Donald Trump: Many 'bad people' want to come to America

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, on Tuesday, February 7, urged the appeals court to expedite its ruling on his executive order, stating that 'bad people' think they should come to America at this time. After the appeals court in San Francisco rejected the Justice Department's request to uphold Trump's executive order on Sunday, the arguments for and against the ban on citizens from Iran and six other countries will be reviewed in court on Tuesday. While critics say the implementation of this order has flaws and causes chaos, White House spokesman Sean Spicer confidently announced that the government would win the appeals court case. In a tweet published on Tuesday, Trump wrote: 'The threat from radical Islamic terrorism is very real. Just look at what is happening in Europe and the Middle East. Courts must act swiftly!' Reuters also quoted him saying: 'The appeals court must uphold my opinion on the immigration order' because, according to Trump, 'many bad people think they should come to America at this time.' The Associated Press also quoted Trump as saying he never thought his administration would have to fight in courts to affirm the ban on immigrants and refugees. The U.S. President added during a meeting with police sheriffs at the White House that his executive order would protect the country. He stated that some people with 'malicious intent' are trying to 'weaken a large part of our power.' Trump claims that more Americans support his policies than those who protest against his executive order. On January 27, Trump signed an executive order banning the entry of citizens from seven countries: Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Somalia, and Yemen for 90 days. The refugee admission program has also been suspended for 120 days, with the ban on Syrian refugees being 'indefinite.' A Seattle judge temporarily lifted this ruling, and now the appeals court in San Francisco must rule on the disagreement between the government and this judge, which is expected to be announced late Tuesday. In this context, the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security stated that some countries on the banned list may not be removed soon. '60,000 U.S. visas' have been revoked since the issuance of Trump's executive order. The lifting of travel restrictions to the U.S. was executed following a federal judge's ruling in Washington. Trump's request for an immediate reinstatement of the ban on the entry of citizens from seven countries was rejected. 97 companies and two U.S. states have called for the cancellation of the ban on the entry of citizens from seven countries. The opposition of 10 senior diplomats and former security officials in the U.S. to the executive order banning entry is noted. The federal appeals court is reviewing the government's request for reconsideration of Trump's order.
