President Donald Trump, taking to Twitter, said that he is calling it a travel ban, despite what lawyers and courts are saying.
This isn’t the first time Trump has taken a difference stance than his spokespeople. In February, Trump called his executive order a travel ban while his administration was adamant that it wasn’t an outright ban.
Trump added that the Justice Department should not have stopped his original plan, replacing it with a “watered down, political correct version they submitted to S.C. [Supreme Court].”
The ban temporarily restricts travel from a handful of Muslim-majority countries to the U.S., CNN reported.
On the campaign trail, Trump said he wanted a stop to all Muslim immigration to the U.S., CNN reported.
Trump tweeted from his personal account, not the official @POTUS account.
