"Our guiding principle," Taylor said, "was this:

If you're Muslim, you aren't welcome here. The right-wingers are just too afraid of you.

The travel ban was always meant to be a temporary measure to appease Trump's voters, hoping they would lose focus by the time it expired and not even realize that it HAD expired.  

And now, they will simply say nothing while other stories push their way to the top of the news and the ban will quietly go away.

Trump had called for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States" during his campaign

Unless they're rich Saudi Arabians, who prop up the economy. I mean, ok, they do happen to be the number one state sponsors of terror and were behind 9/11 but think of all that financial glory...

Yet he is reviewing it even more strongly. So he isn't expecting his voters to forget about it.

No no I was just making sure we are talking about the same people. I figure they simply just bought enough weapons recently to be exempt. That's not good either but I prefer that over being exempt due to donations to one specific person's foundation.

I think they should be on that list but they have also shown enough savvy to know how to stay off it.
