Avin' a giggle?
I might only be speaking for myself, but I know that I feel so much better that a fine British gentleman, such as yourself, is so knowledgeable about world politics that he can set we poor, dumb, Americans straight. My goodness, how did we ever last this long on our own without the superiority of the British to help guide us?
I am of course overlooking the fact that the UK has the highest density of surveillance systems in place...and I am overlooking that portions of your fine island are overrun with Islam so prolifically that those areas are considered sovereign and have instituted sharia law. I overlook these things because I have no doubts you have some perfectly rational explanation for them that you will give to me. I also know you will speak s-l-o-w-l-y and use simple words because I, as an American, am far too stupid to understand the machinations of intellectually superior people, such as yourself.

immaterial to my point.
"the POTUS can unilaterally determine national threats and detain any person or any broad class of people"
is certainly an argument that justifies concentration camps instituted by the decision and opinion of a single man, and that premise has nothing at all to do with involvement of congress, in fact, the comment i replied to left congress completely out of the loop when he said that the POTUS has the right to make such determinations and take such actions unilaterally.
That isn't the point and it's a huge exaggeration to equate the two. The question is whether or not the President has the unilateral power to suspend travel to the US by foreigners. He clearly does. Presidents have certain powers afforded to them by the Constitution. Starting concentration camps isn't within his power, banning certain travelers for a short period of time IS!!
Obama had a ban on Iraqis, Carter on Iranians. Nobody said a word.
