Expressly stated in the constitution, is it?Trump's executive order clearly placed a ban on immigration from specific nations (an expressly stated right of the President in the Constitution) and not an entire religion. It really isn't relevant what Trump said a year prior. It matters what he actually did and stated in his order. It is concerning that the conservative justices and liberal justices are so far apart on this. It should have been a unanimous decision upholding Trump's order.
Here's article II.

If you could quote the bit where it expressly states that the president has the "power to ban immigration from specific nations," I'd be obliged.
