yeah, this is very suspicious.
immigrants from Saudi Arabia and Egypt are not scrutinized the way immigrants from Iran are, under this policy. we really must look at Trump's motivations.
Just considering the case of Saudi Arabia, we have this:
[Trump] emphasized that he has a good relationship with Saudi Arabia. On the same day, he said: “They are buying apartments and properties from me,” adding, “They spend $40-50 million, I am supposed to hate them? I love them very much.”

- tdkl 10y agoPoint out an American politician who doesn't do business / takes donations from the Saudis. I'm waiting.
- HillaryBriss 10y agobut that's the beauty of it. i don't have to name such a politician in order to justify my comment. even if every single US politician takes donations from the Saudis, it still makes sense to scrutinize the motivations behind any policies that appear to unfairly favor Saudi Arabia.
