USMNT’s Geoff Cameron supports President Trump’s ‘temporary pause on immigration’

U.S. men’s national team defender Geoff Cameron says he supports President Donald Trump’s recent executive order establishing a travel ban for citizens of seven Muslim-majority nations.

“I believe it’s important to support our President whether he was your candidate or not,” Cameron told SI.com’s Grant Wahl. “I am pleased he is making security of all Americans one of his top priorities. Our enemies have stated—and in Europe they have proven—they will take advantage of lax immigration procedures for the purposes of staging attacks. A temporary pause on immigration for the purpose of evaluating and improving vetting procedures makes sense.
