I do not support Donald Trump but his position on Muslims has precedence more recent than FDR and WWII.

Though I lived through it, I forgot that President Jimmy Carter banned Iranians from entering America

Reminder: Jimmy Carter banned all Iranians from entering US

by Poor Richard  December 8, 2015

During the Iranian hostage crisis, Carter issued a number of orders to put pressure on Iran. Among these, Iranians were banned from entering the United States unless they oppose the Shiite Islamist regime or had a medical emergency.

Here’s Jimmy “Hitler” Carter saying it back in 1980.

Fourth, the Secretary of Treasury [State] and the Attorney General will invalidate all visas issued to Iranian citizens for future entry into the United States, effective today. We will not reissue visas, nor will we issue new visas, except for compelling and proven humanitarian reasons or where the national interest of our own country requires. This directive will be interpreted very strictly.

Apparently barring people from a terrorist country is not against “our values” after all. It may even be “who we are”. Either that or Carter was a racist monster just like Trump.

Meanwhile here’s how the Iranian students in the US were treated.

Carter orders 50,000 Iranian students in US to report to immigration office with view to deporting those in violation of their visas. On 27 December 1979, US appeals court allows deportation of Iranian students found in violation.

In November 1979, the Attorney General had given all Iranian students one month to report to the local immigration office. Around 7,000 were found in violation of their visas. Around 15,000 Iranians were forced to leave the US.

Let me help you Mr. Markle. A person from a particular nation state has nothing to do with that person's religion. If the state department wanted to ban the entry into America of all Syrians until the civil war ceased, that would be upheld. But, I think Ted Cruz would have a problem. He wants Christian refugees to be able to come to America, and therein lies the distinction which any reasonably intelligent person would realize. Banning all Muslims is stupid, racist, and xenophobic. However, I am glad to see you trying to rationalize those actions as being correct. It confirms a great deal.

Damn right,  markle.  Carter and Trump are two of a kind. 
So tell me something, markle,  why do so many right-wingers say Carter was the worst president in history when he had the guts to ban muslims just like Trump does?

President Carter WAS considered the worst president by many more than simply "right wingers".

The difference is that President Carter has a failed record as a President and Donald Trump has not been President so he has no record other than a very successful business.

Saying President Carter and Donald Trump are two of a kind, is just plain foolish.
