It targets a group, foreign students, that is mostly non-white. I guess some colleteral amage is OK when it makes discrimination a little less obvious.
You're right, I think Trump had a real Kumbaya moment and renounced racism after the courts struck down his Muslim ban for targeting an ethnic or religious group. Ever since then his orders have only happened to consistently target minorities.
Second, the largest Muslim country in the world is Indonesia, and it wasn't on the travel ban list, so I wouldn't call it a Muslim ban. India has the second largest muslim population, and it wasn't on the list. Pakistan has the third largest Muslim population and wasn't on the list.
I didn't see the exemption for white students in this. Because there isn't one?
