In a tweet, the president claimed an executive order banning all immigration would protect American jobs

In the U.S., Donald Trump has already banned most flights from China and Europe. And now, in a tweet, he said he would sign an executive order placing a blanket ban on immigration to protect American jobs during the pandemic crisis.
