No, I can't. And it really isn't up to my imagination either. If this 'rational' person has a 'rational' argument for wanting to ban Muslims or gays then let's hear it because I can't imagine it. Yes, you will get pushback on that.

It wasn't a Muslim ban. The ban didn't include Malaysia, Indonesia, or Algeria for instance and many other Muslim countries. There were 6 countries on the travel ban list. There are 50 Muslim-majority countries in the world.

POTUS himself called it a Muslim ban several times, especially when asking Giuliani how to accomplish a Muslim ban legally.

Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on

That's a quote.

That is not a quote, that is a paraphrasing of whatever the original statement was.

That's a quote:

You may not like that fact but it remains a fact. Extra points for referring to himself in the third person because, you know, Obama was so arrogant.
