Jimmy Carter Banned Iranians From Entering US During Hostage Crisis


President Carter’s directive:

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

President Carter sent thousands back to Iran who were in violation of their visas. It is clear that the democrat party supported the broad-brush approach to deportation when it was their guy in office and they held the congress. They were more Trumpy than Trump himself.

Candidate Donald Trump is far more open minded. He simply wants to target by ideology, not singular national origin they way Carter did. Just like President Obama’s Syrian migrant mess, Jimmy Carter also brought the Iranian issue on himself.

While the caterwauling against Trump will abate only until he speaks next, his critics would do well to do things like read about issues. It seems every time Trump stirs up a hornets nest with an “unheard of” proposal, we find out his critics heroes have already done it before.

It’s like his staff actually reads about the issues. Perhaps more leaders should try it.
