Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsDrumpf said 109 people were affected by his ersatz Muslim ban.
Where did he get that number from?

I read the number of people affected by his ban vary from 60,000 -100,000.
A lot of groups named in the ban would just use common sense and not travel.
