Wrong. That is not the issue here. In the draft which leaked, it clearly suspends immigrant and nonimmigrant entry to nationals of the listed countries. According to this, a US green card holder who is an Iranian citizen cannot travel back to the US after, say, vacationing in London.

In addition, due to the suspension of Visa Waiver Program to nationals of these countries last year, an Iranian-Australian, (or Iranian-German, etc.), living in and a citizen of Australia for 30+ years and hasn't even visited Iran in that period, cannot visit the US visa-free any longer. So that means they need a B-2 tourist visa. Problem is, this E.O. suspends issuance of nonimmigrant visas to these people, so they now no longer have a way to enter the US.
Will he actually sign this E.O.? Apparently it was supposed to be signed yesterday, but didn't happen. He is in Philly right now so I'm not sure if this one's going to happen or not.
