So there were at least THREE significant problems with Trump's announcement of the "Europe" ban: - He wrongly said it includes goods - He didn't make clear that Americans/perm residents/their families are free to return - He wrongly suggested the UK was the only exempt country

Well, here’s a 4th thing Trump didn’t explain: the ban is on people - aside from Americans/perm residents/their families - who *have been in* Europe’s Schengen zone in the last 14 days, not just on citizens of Schengen nations or people flying from there. https://twitter.com/stevenportnoy/status/1237924599939162113?s=21 …https://twitter.com/stevenportnoy/status/1237924599939162113 …

Steven PortnoyVerified account @stevenportnoyTrump said: "We will be suspending all travel from Europe to the United States for the next 30 days." But his proclamation bans entry for all foreigners who were "physically present" in the Schengen Zone 14 days prior to their planned arrival in the US. That's a big difference.Show this thread82 replies 647 retweets 2,077 likesShow this thread
Replying to @ddale8
There's also no 30 day limit in the proclamation.
